2. Power inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

   The inverter does not produce any power; the power is provided by the DC source. A power inverter can be entirely electronic or maybe a combination of mechanical effects (such as a rotary apparatus) and electronic circuitry. Static inverters do not use moving parts in the conversion process.

3. Electric power conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_conversion

   In electrical engineering, power conversion is the process of converting electric energy from one form to another. A power converter is an electrical device for converting electrical energy between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC). It can also change the voltage or frequency of the current.

4. Grid-tie inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tie_inverter

   Inverters that can produce power at different AC voltages have different maximum outputs for each voltage. Peak power tracking voltage: This represents the DC voltage range in which the inverter's maximum point power tracker operates. The system designer must configure the strings optimally so that during the majority of the year, the voltage ...

   An HVDC thyristor valve tower 16.8 m tall in a hall at Baltic Cable AB in Sweden A battery charger is an example of a piece of power electronics. A PCs power supply is an example of a piece of power electronics, whether inside or outside of the cabinet. Power electronics is the application of electronics to the control and conversion of ...

6. Maximum power point tracking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_power_point_tracking

   Solar inverters convert DC power to AC power and may incorporate MPPT. The power at the MPP (P mpp) is the product of the MPP voltage (V mpp) and MPP current (I mpp). In general, the P-V curve of a partially shaded solar array can have multiple peaks, and some algorithms can get stuck in a local maximum rather than the global maximum of the ...

7. Rotary converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_converter

   A rotary converter is a type of electrical machine which acts as a mechanical rectifier, inverter or frequency converter. Rotary converters were used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), or DC to AC power, before the advent of chemical or solid state power rectification and inverting.

8. Solar inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_inverter

   Internal view of a solar inverter. Note the many large capacitors (blue cylinders), used to buffer the double line frequency ripple arising due to single-phase ac system.. A solar inverter or photovoltaic (PV) inverter is a type of power inverter which converts the variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic solar panel into a utility frequency alternating current (AC) that can be ...

9. HVDC converter station - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter_station

   When line commutated converters are used, the converter station will require between 40% and 60% of its power rating as reactive power. This can be provided by banks of switched capacitors or by synchronous condensers , or if a suitable power generating station is located close to the static inverter plant, the generators in the power station.
