How Much Power Does An Inverter Draw With No Load?
Inverters play a crucial role in converting direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC) for powering various appliances. Solar inverters and standard power inverters serve the same fundamental purpose, albeit with slight distinctions. While solar inverters harness DC energy from solar panels for storage in batteries, traditional inverters draw power from batteries to provide AC power to connected devices. But here's the catch: inverters, even when idle, continue to consume power. This article aims to demystify the concept of inverter no-load power consumption and its implications.
