Abstract

Power electronic systems are used widely to convert electric energy from one form to other using electronic devices. Four basic power electronics functions are AC to DC conversion, DC to AC conversion, DC to DC conversion and AC to AC conversion. These basic functions are used to build power supplies, DC transmission systems, electric drives and others. People can no longer afford to be tied down to a fixed power source location when using their equipment’s. Overcoming the obstacle of fixed power has led to the invention of a DC/AC power inverter. Companies, Industries, Organizations, Homes among the others are posed with a major problem of power shortage especially here in India. Although in developing countries, shortage of power is a problem commercially and domestically. Simply stated, our ability to consume power is growing faster than our ability to supply power. Hence, there is need for the alternative source. In this paper, work has been carried out in which solar cell or module is used to power an inverter. This can also be called photovoltaic system, because it consists of solar modules, solar charge controller, 24V DC battery and an inverter. It’s use is far better than generating set because it needs less maintenance, it does not use fuel, it is not heavy, it is rugged, it does not need an alternating current for its charging and it is noiseless.
