Power inverters convert AC power form the mains into DC power. This is then the same as though the power has been obtained from a battery. They are often used in trucks and buses for powering equipment.

How can you convert a 6v battery to AC power?

Use an "Inverter". They make a lot of inverters for 12v but few for 6v. You could use 2 6v batteries hooked in series though. Just make sure the inverter is big enough to power what you wish. A 300 watt one will power a electric razor, or small electronics fine. A 1000 watt would power a computer or a laptop also, etc.


What is the Difference between frequency converter and frequency inverter?

frequency is genrally cycle per second, and frequencies may be of a dc nature or ac , devices which convert dc frequency in to an ac frequency are frequency converters and devieces which convert ac frequency in to dc frequency are frequency inverters. because in terms of power electronics, devices which convert ac to dc are called converters, and devices which convert dc in to ac are called "inverters" 'mehboob hunzai" I'm a engineers in this devices, the frequency inverter is convert AC to AC but with variable frequency output, means the frequency & voltage are adjustable; The frequency converter can convert DC to AC, like 24VDC to 220VAC and also the frequency is adjustable. One most important thing is the out power of frequency inverter just can be used for controlling AC motor, while frequency converter can be treated as normal power supply as our daily using power grid.
