It is very hot in India these days. Heat has wreaked havoc in many states. The scorching sun and rising temperatures have made life difficult for people. Nowadays it is becoming very difficult to spend even a single moment without electricity. At the same time, many cities are facing power cuts these days during the summer season.
Due to which people are facing problems. In such a situation, many people have installed inverters in their homes. There is no problem in running the fan AC. The inverter is connected to the UPS. Therefore, electricity is also consumed for its use. Let us tell you how much electricity is consumed in the house after installing the inverter.
How an inverter works is pretty common knowledge. Direct current is converted into alternating current by the inverter. The inverter itself does not consume any electricity in this process. Inverter is a part of UPS. Apart from the inverter, UPS also has a battery and a charger. When the power goes out. Then these three provide electricity. The battery supplies power.
But the current present in the battery is DC i.e. direct current. But the electrical appliances present in the house run on AC i.e. alternating current. So here the inverter works to convert direct current into alternating current. Due to which electricity is used in the house.
While using an inverter, a question often arises in people’s mind that how much electricity does the inverter consume. So let me tell you that it consumes very less amount of electricity. Because the battery of the inverter keeps charging throughout the day. During that time he needs electricity. When an inverter converts direct current into alternating current. Even during this time it consumes electricity.
This does not require much electricity. So you can say that installing an inverter does not have much impact on your electricity bill. In the long run, this reduces your electricity bill rather than wasting electricity. However, if your inverter is old or has a fault, it may consume more power.
