This project is titled the design and construction of a 4.8Kva pure sine wave inverter system with battery feed indicator. Pure sine wave inverters produce a pure sine wave output. This means the power output from a pure sine wave inverter is the same as the mains supply.
A pure sine wave is not only critical for the correct functioning of high end electronic equipment, it will also ensure that appliances run more smoothly, producing less heat and noise. A sine wave inverter circuit developed to run AC appliances at a low cost which high efficiency
Pure sine wave inverter take up 12v DC from battery and inverts it to an output of 220v, 50H2 AC. It makes no noise during operation and no hazardous carbon monoxide is generated in the surrounding. In a pure wave inverter a low pass filter was used to filter out the high frequencies and thus isolate the harmonics so a 50 Hz fundamental frequency was retained. The main aim of this device is to build a 3.5kva pure sine wave inverter.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
A power inverter converts DC power (12VDC) to standard AC power (220 VAC). It is designed to meet up with the power demand in the offices and in homes in the absence of power supply from the power holding company of Nigeria, PHCN. In order words the device / item serves as a substitute for PHCN which almost monopolises electricity to people.
Electricity is one of the greatest inventions man has ever made, due to its very important role in socio-economic and technological development (Owen and Edward, 1996) [7]. Electricity can be transmitted in two different ways namely: alternating currents (AC) or Direct current (DC). Alternating current is the form obtained from power outlets in homes and offices. It consists of a sinusoidal voltage source in which a continuous change in the direction of flow of voltage (and current) can be used to employ magnetic components (Cooks et al., 2001) [1]. Direct current is electricity flowing in a constant direction, and/or possessing a voltage with constant polarity and is appropriate for short-range transmission. Direct current is the form stored up in batteries. It uses is limited and it depends on AC power (Owen and Edward, 1996) [7].
A common difference between AC and DC involves the amount of energy that each can carry. Direct current has a voltage level and cannot travel very far until it losses energy. Ac is safer to transmit over long distance (Nergaard et al., 2001) [5]. DC is preferred over AC because of its portability hence the introduction of the inverter that are mobile AC source from a portable DC battery. An inverter is an electrical device that converts DC to AC; the converted AC can be at any required voltage frequency with the use of appropriate transformers, switching and control circuits. There are three types of DC-AC inverters, the square wave, the modified sine wave and pure sine wave.
Pure sine wave inverters are the most affluent in terms of efficiency and accurate timing output. They use batteries to generate power and it’s important to have a means of recharging (Cunningham, 1999) [3]. Various methods can be adopted such as solar panels, wind turbine etc. Pure sine wave inversion is obtained by taking a DC voltage source and switching it across a load using an H-bridge. If this voltage needs to be boosted from the DC source in the inverter, it can be accomplished either before the AC stage by using a DC-DC boost converter, or after AC stage by using a Boost transformer (Crowley and Leung, 2001) [2]. The inverted signal is composed of a pulse width-modulated signal which encodes a sine wave. The duty cycle of the output is changed such that power transmitted is exactly that of a sine wave. This output can be used as it is or, alternatively, can be filtered easily into a pure sine wave (Nuzhat et al., 2010) [6]. The aim of this proposed study is to build a pure sine wave inverter which is an electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). The input voltage, frequency and output voltage and overall power handling depend on the design of the specific device or circuitry. It allows to have a reliable source of electricity for various appliances even if they are off the power grid. Mode of operation of an inverter is divided in three stages: oscillator, amplifier, and output transformer stage.
1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT
Recently it was discovered that Square wave inverter and modified sine wave inverter has high harmonic distortion and as result of that it does not have clean electricity. Inductive loads do not run faster or cooler, it produces noise and causes crash of appliances such as computer. To overcome these problems, pure sine wave was invented. A sine wave is a continuous wave that describes a smooth repetitive oscillation. It is the ideal waveform for the transfer of AC power with very low harmonic distortion. Pure sine wave inverters produce power which equals or better than the power in home. It use sophisticated technology to protect even the most sensitive electronics. It can be used for digital microwaves ,televisions, fridges, laptops and other electronic equipments. Pure Sine inverters can power just about any AC appliance without risk of damage.
1.3 OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT
The main aim of this device is to build a 4.8kva pure sine wave inverter. The objectives of this project are:
- To build a pure sine wave inverter that can be used to power appliances both in house and industries.
- To safely operate any electronic devices (such as micro wave, drills, clock, speed motor) that require sensitive calibration.
- To back-up the erratic power supply by PHCN.
- To ensure the protection of the back-up source consumer equipment and supply.
1.4 PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT
The purpose of this work is to produce power which equals or better than the power in home. It uses sophisticated technology to protect even the most sensitive electronics.
1.5 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT
The output voltage of a sine-wave inverter has a sine wave-form like the sine wave-form of the mains / utility voltage. In a sine wave, the voltage rises and falls smoothly with a smoothly changing phase angle and also changes its polarity instantly when it crosses 0 Volts.
1.6 SCOPE OF THE PROJECT
A power inverter is a power conversion device. It converts fixed direct current (DC) voltage to frequency sinusoidal alternating current (AC) voltage output. This unit of the system is responsible for powering the entire system. The input voltage of the system is 12V, and the output voltage is 230VAC. The microcontroller is used to generate the required frequency ranging from 20 KHZ-500 KHz. The battery feed indicator indicates when the battery is connected to system.
1.7 LIMITATION OF THE PROJECT
- Expensive when compared to traditional generators
- The inverter can power a few appliances for a short period
- The input is limited to 12VDC, output to 220VAC and the frequency to 50Hz
- The power rating of the work is 4.8kva
1.8 APPLICATION OF THE PROJECT

CHAPTER FIVE
5.1 CONCLUSION
A power inverter system which generates a more than one step sinusoidal AC waveform is known as a sine wave inverter. To more understandably classify the inverters with outputs of significantly less distortion compared to the "modified sine wave" (3 stage) inverter models, the suppliers generally make use of the expression pure sine wave inverter. Practically all consumer range inverters that happen to be promoted as a "pure sine wave inverter" usually do not deliver a gentle sine wave output in any way, pretty much a a reduced amount of choppy output compared to the square wave (a single stage) as well as modified sine wave (three step) inverters. With this perception, the terms "Pure sine wave" or "sine wave inverter" are could lead to confusions to the user who may be interested in buying the system. That said, things may not be that crucial for typical electronics since these contend with the results reasonably nicely.
In areas where power inverter units become equivalents for traditional mains line supply, a sine wave output is most suited owing to the fact that most electronic units get fully optimized to be most useful with a sine wave Alternating current source of power. The customary electrical power supply endeavours to produce electricity which may be a great approximation of a sine wave.
Sine wave inverters possessing more than three blocks in the wave output may be considered a bit more advanced and include much higher price if compared to a modified sine wave, having just 3 blocks, or square wave, (single block), variants of the identical power processing. Switch-mode power supply (SMPS) gadgets, which include laptop or computer or DVD players, function on best performing modified sine wave power. AC motors expressly powered on non-sinusoidal electricity may perhaps deliver increased warming, can have distinctive speed-torque attributes, or could possibly churn out additional audible sounds as compared with when working on sinusoidal power.
Without this conversion from DC to AC, special appliances or adapters often need to be purchased - and DC appliances are often more expensive than their AC counterparts.
The above two types of batteries are popular inverter batteries. Before buying the inverter and the battery, ask your dealer which suits your requirement better.
This project is designed to be used in our homes, offices and industries where the need for 24hrs supply is needed. And should be used and maintain by a qualified personnel...
