Abstract :
Static inverters of up to 100 kva (kilovolt-amperes) have been built, and units up to 800 kva are being designed. These devices, generally in smaller sizes, are suitable for converting direct current from batteries to alternating current for emergency loads or for continuous power sources for essential a-c loads. Typical applications, battery considerations, application problems, and available units are discussed.
