Step 6Test The Circuit

Test The Circuit
A word of warning here: The inverter creates extremely high voltage output. While it is rather low amperage, it can still do some damage. Don't even think about handling the inverter while it is on. Burns, shocks and maybe even death can occur.

Plug in your voltage divider, power source, inverter and panel and see if everything works. If your inverter is making a high pitched whining sound, it is either damaged or something is receiving too much voltage. Unplug everything quickly and double check your voltages and wiring. If voltages are correct and the whining continues, your inverter is most likely damaged. Find a replacement. Damaged inverters have been known to overheat and start small fires.
