AC power is available 24 hours a day with the flick of a switch. The generator can be run at convenient times for direct AC power and battery charging. Generator operation is much more efficient. Energy costs are lowered because generator run time is reduced. Generator capacity is better utilized as a result of battery storage.
Many inverters come with a built-in battery charger.
This eliminates the purchase of an additional component to charge your battery bank from grid power or a generator. Most models with a charger have a built in transfer relay. All of the trace units are able to switch from generator or grid power to inverter power fast enough to prevent computers or electronics from crashing - allowing them to function as an uninterruptible power supplies. Our battery bank provides us enough power to keep everything running for many hours during power outages. This enables you to operate large power tools, deep well pumps and any other load that requires 220 VAC power.
