Abstract
Electricity could be regarded as one of humanity's most remarkable inventions since numerous other innovations and operations rely on it for their effective operation. The primary source of this vital energy typically originates from utility lines linked to various power stations, including hydroelectric ones. Nevertheless, the alternating current (AC) supply from utility lines is susceptible to fluctuations such as power surges, voltage deficits, complete outages, and substantial deviations in the electrical supply frequency. The inconsistent and undependable electricity provision from the Nigerian authorities, particularly in recent years, is a significant cause for concern among conscientious Nigerians. The energy stored in the battery undergoes a conversion process, transforming it from a direct current form into a sinusoidal alternating current (AC) output at a voltage of 220V using the inversion technique. An electronic oscillator is a type of electronic circuit responsible for generating a periodic, oscillating electronic signal, and this approach is employed. The DSPIC30F2010 microcontroller is utilized to attain a sinusoidal oscillating output. It generates pulse width modulated (PWM) output with a duty cycle that fluctuates in a sinusoidal pattern. While the inversion process is underway, the controller monitors various parameters, including battery level, overloads, the presence of AC mains, high temperatures, and numerous other features. A 16 by 2 liquid crystal display screen is employed to exhibit information regarding the inverter's status, the charge level of the battery, inverter voltage, mains voltage values, and frequency. A system has been developed, put into operation, and set up for converting 24V DC into 220V AC using rechargeable batteries. It operates more effectively when two 12V deep cycle batteries are connected in series, each with a capacity rating of 220 AH. This setup can maintain a consistent output of 220-240 volts for over 4 hours of continuous usage
