    • 1.2      OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
      In this project, a 5KVA D.C. to A.C inverter will be constructed and analyzed. The primary objective of undertaking this project is for the following reasons:
      1.          To design an electrical system capable of producing power from a 12v D.C. battery that will be used to produce an output of 5KVA 50Hz – 240v which will be used to drive electrical appliances.
      2.          The project is also aimed at exposing the HND students to simple electrical design and building electrical circuit.
      3.          The project (5KVA, 220 – 240v inverter) will also help the student to understand the basic principles of operation of an inverter circuit and its relevance in the society.
      4.          The project is also aimed at introducing the principle circuit of analysis
      1.3      SCOPE OF THE STUDY
      The project has been undertaken i.e 5KVA, 220 – 240 volt inverter has four stages or units.
      These units includes
      i.            Supply unit
      ii.          Inverter unit
      iii.        Step-up transformer unit
      iv.         Triggering unit.
      The scope of this project is primarily to show how the low voltage DC power supplied is used to energize the circuit. It will also show how the inverter unit convert he low voltage DC into a low voltage AC in form of square wave. The triggering unit provides the trigging pulse needed by MOSFET to operate.
      1.4      LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
      In spite of the base of construction of an inverter and it’s noiseless and pollution free native unlike other alternative source of the generating electricity, there is a need for charging and recharging the battery form time to time.
      Also the use of the bulky transformer instead of copper transformer which is lighter and smaller in size, but more expensive amitation.
      Another limitation is the inability of the circuit to provide a pure sine wave output wave form. This is because it is quite expensive to design a pure sine wave inverter circuit.
      1.5      ORGANIZATION OF THE PROJECT
      The 5KVA, 220 – 240v, 50Hz inverter is constructed using the following components: Resistor capacitors, semiconductor diode, transistors, (MOSFET), integrated circuit (ICS), transformer. The MOSFET is the major component used in the inversion of Direct Current (DC) to Alternating current (A.C)
      This 5KVA inverter project report is arranged in the following sequence.
      -      Chapter one discusses a general introduction to the project. It gives us a background of the project Helping us to see the relevance of this inverter project in the world today, it also discusses the objectives of an inverter as well as type.
      -      Chapter two discusses the various literary review opinions and ideas that various authorities in the world of electronics, discusses about the inverter system, discusses a general description or the various components used in the construction of this project.
      -      Chapter three discusses the design and the principles of operation.
      -      Chapter four discusses the construction procedure.
      -      Chapter five is the bill of Engineering measurement and Evaluation.
      -      Chapter six show how the project was packaged and its conclusion.

    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]This project review the conformability of uninterrupted power supply through the use of power inverter, However, inverter is of different categories base on power rating such as 1KVA, 1.5KVA, 5KVA etc. Moreover, since the invention of inverter, some problem associated with alternative power supply had been drastically reduced. Meanwhile, the problems such as: noise, production of fumes cost of procurement of oil, fuel and maintenance of plant is over.   ... Continue reading---
