Power inverter explained. In this video we take a look at how inverters work. We look at power inverters used in cars and solar power to understand the basics of how they operate. We then cover electricity fundamentals, direct current, dc, ac, alternating current, single phase, three phase and split phase, electricity, pulse width modulation, variable speed drives, three phase rectification and more.
