Hey Guys,
For running commodity routers, radios, servers on a remote site, is
using a modified sine wave acceptable? I have some electrical engineers
at the site im working on thinking of putting in a modified sine
inverter, and joining them up with a large battery cache.
The question we rais
Most of these things you're talking about use switching power supplies.
Generally it doesn't matter if the input waveform is a pure sinusoid or
modified sine- the first stage of a SMPS is a rectifier and filter
capacitor that converts the input to DC anyway.
I've never had any trouble running v

The power supplies should handle it fine. But one thing to consider with the
modified sine wave is the noise/harmonics which can bleed through power
supplies that were designed for grid power. You won't know if it works till you
try it.

I have had a few switching power supplies die from using them with a
modified sw inverter, and wouldn't trust the combination for a site you
couldn't easily access. If you are using transformer type power
supplies, this may be less of an issue.
In any case you will lose efficiency and thus storage
