How to Test a Pure Sine Wave Inverter? | inverter
Measure input voltage: Use a multimeter to measure the input voltage of the battery or power supply. Make sure it meets the input voltage requirements of the inverter
Measure output voltage: After the inverter is powered on, use a multimeter to measure the AC output voltage. It should match the rated output of the inverter (e.g., 120V or 230V, depending on your region). Check waveform with an oscilloscope: Connect an oscilloscope to the output of the inverter to check the waveform.
Measure input voltage: Use a multimeter to measure the input voltage of the battery or power supply. Make sure it meets the input voltage requirements of the inverter (e.g., 12V, 24V, 48V).
Battery condition: If testing with a battery, check the battery's voltage and charge level to make sure it is within the optimal range for the pure sine power inverter. Measure output voltage: After the inverter is powered on, use a multimeter to measure the AC output voltage.
Consequently, it's necessary to use a true RMS voltmeter (digital multimeter) and current meter (clamp meter). On the secondary side of an inverter, the voltage and current's fundamental wave includes harmonic components.
