Abstract
Nigeria's unreliable power supply is a well-documented challenge that creates one of the most difficult business environments globally, undermining the country's competitiveness. The consequences are evident. To cope with the erratic electricity supply, individuals and businesses are forced to resort to expensive self-generated power solutions. One of ths Business adversely affected by the state of Power Generation and Distribution in Nigeria is the manufacturing industry. Most welders rely on the epileptic nature of power to carry out their jobs and meet consumer demands. In most instances, the business loss the goodwill/confidence of her customers as job completion schedules are not met. This project focuses on the design, development, and optimization of an inverter-based arc welding system. This work aims at helping small scale Welders Busneses Meet their need for power. Inveter Welding Systems can be deployed in rural and semi urban areas that are off-grid. With this improvement, skilled workers can carry out their job near the target use location with minimal transportation cost. With proper funding, this project can be expanded for large industial use. The optimized system demonstrates potential for applications in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, and construction
