Power Requirement in Construction
Learn how to calculate power requirements in construction, choose the right power source, and ensure efficient energy management on-site.
Looking for a 36 V inverter is often harder than finding a 12 V or 24V inverter since they are less common. Although not used as often, they still serve important roles in mid-range power applications. All of these higher-voltage systems should be used when powering equipment that draws over 3,000 W. Higher voltage is important for several reasons.
A power inverter is a device that converts low-voltage DC (direct current) power from a battery to standard household AC (alternating current) power.
Your inverter should match the DC voltage of your battery or solar system—e.g., 36 V input for a 36 V battery bank. Mismatches can cause poor performance or damage. Try to operate your inverter at around 70–80% of its continuous rating to maximize efficiency and lifespan.
Ensure the batteries you choose match the inverter's input voltage. In North America, the electric service coming into your home is 120 volt AC power. If you are in North America, ensure your inverter's output is compatible with 120V service to power your electronics, power tools or small appliances.
