DC Supply Current
• If the inverter is lossless, average power
absorbed by the load equals the average
power supplied by the dc source.

• For an inductive load, the current is
approximately sinusoidal and the fundamental
component of the output voltage supplies the
power to the load. Also, the dc supply voltage
remains essentially at Vs.
