The World Book Encyclopedia (1990) pointed out that electric generator
electricity used by people. They furnish electric power that runs machine in the
factories, provides lighting, and operate home appliances, generators maybe small
enough to hold in one hand, the midget generators used in some scientific
electric current. It consists of three basic parts. An energy source (e.g., battery or
generator) that converts non- electrical energy into electrical energy, an output
device (e.g., motor or lamp) that uses electrical energy to do work, and a
connection (e.g., wire or cable) that allows electric currents to flow between the
source and output device. Circuits can be switch on and off. An open circuit has
6
gaps, preventing the current from completing its path, while a close circuit has no
gap.
there are several things that are saved to energy and safe to use. It also describes
describes the types of linear regulator, its characteristics and is intended for
specific application. Selecting the best type for circuits require trade-offs in

there are typical applications for inverters include: micro wave ovens, television,
equipment. It also includes two main types of inverters, Modified Sine Wave and
Hertz.

Study”, sought to design, construct, test and try-out and revise energy saver which
was constructed using locally available materials. The researchers concluded that
and it can also be used as power-on delay and low voltage protector for
compressor type appliances. It was found out that its mechanism is so simple that
and try-out and revise a regulated power supply trainer using locally available
materials. The finding of the study is that it is feasible to design not only a power
supply trainer but also other kinds of trainer that can be helpful in teaching

Supply) stated that DC/AC inverters (50 Hz) are used in many cases as back up
the inverted voltage 12/ 230 transformer is used which is very bulky since
operating frequency is very low (50 Hz). There are small portable inverters that
have been manufactured using other methods to step up 12 DCV to higher level.
There are many different techniques. One method is to use dc/dc boost converter
Technical Feasibility Study, sought to design, construct, test and try-out and revise
available materials. It was found out that it was much cheaper than its commercial
counterpart. The researchers concluded that the device can be utilized by shop
that it is has soft temporal rise of voltage and the absence of harmonic
radio equipment and surge currents on condensers. On the other hand, square
wave voltages can be generated very simply by switches, e.g. electronic valves
