Inverters – Effective Equipments against Power Outages



Power Generation – A Gloomy and Grave Situation

One of the major problems that India is battling against is power and electricity blackouts. Despite the fact that India is a country rich in natural resources, such as, coal, water, power generation should not be a problem, yet with the unprecedented increase in population and the widespread area of the country, the power generation falls short of requirements of the populace. The Industrial Sector in the country is heavily dependent on power which is required for manufacturing purposes. In the wake of power shortages, industries have installed power generators to cater to their production needs, since they cannot afford to lose out on account of off and on power outages. There are a large number of manufacturing industries and specifically in the IT sector that operate on a 24x7 basis and require a consistent flow of power to suffice their requirements.

The Domestic Front

Besides the industrial sector, the domestic consumption of energy resources such as electricity and power is exceptionally high and the power generated does not meet the extraordinary demands of the teeming millions in the country. In the present situation, families have preferred to assuage their sufferings from power outages by installing inverters in their homes which ensure a consistent flow of electricity to counteract complete blackout situations. The inverter is effective equipment which operates on 12 V batteries and certain essential electrical points are connected to the inverter, such as tube lights, fans, television sets. The batteries of the inverters are charged while power supply is normal.

There are a large number of manufacturers of inverters that are produced on a mass scale and the Inverters price is largely depended on the capacity of the inverter to provide power to the household. An inverter in a house has turned out to be an essential commodity which brings about light to a dark home. Some of the well known and reputed inverter manufacturers in the country are Luminous, Videocon, Microtek and Su-kam besides various other well known branded inverters which are available in a large variety of models and features. Microtek inverters and Su kam inverters are one of the popular brands of inverters available in the market. Each model of inverter is incorporated with a safety feature that is the fuse which is a vital component of the inverter which protects the inverter from any type of damage. Manufacturers of inverters recommend a battery change preferably once a year.

The Pricing

Each manufacturer involved in the production of inverters endeavors to offer the latest and state of the art technology inverter at the most affordable price.  The inverters price for a reasonable and a standard model of inverter costs between Rs. 4,000 to Rs. 29000. The pricing ultimately depends on the capacity of the inverter to convert Direct Current to Alternating Current and the type of battery used.
