	An inverter is an electrical device that converts direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). It may be single phase or 3 phase, and powers the machine’s systems and motors. It is so named because early mechanical AC to DC converters were modified and made to work in reverse, and thus were "inverted", to convert DC to AC.
