What is the Function of a Car Inverter?
1 Answers
Car inverters function to convert direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC). There are two main connection methods: 1. Direct connection to the car battery, which provides higher power output suitable for high-power appliances; 2. Connection through the cigarette lighter power converter, which offers lower output power sufficient for small appliances. The maintenance steps for inverter faults are: 1. Rectifier section: Household rectifiers generally use single-phase AC input. Simply check the diode's unidirectional conductivity to determine its condition, while also paying attention to the insulation withstand voltage of the rectifier bridge; 2. Relay inspection: The current-limiting resistor suppresses the peak value of the inrush current. After the filter capacitor is fully charged, use relays to short-circuit both ends of the current-limiting resistor.
