The one at my home is always switched on. I think I can experiment that today as no one's at home. Sent from my Redmi Note 4 using Tapatalk Yes, it does. But if you are having frequent power cuts then it's better to keep it charged all the time. The risk of keeping the inverter plugged in always is that it could exhaust the electrolyte in the battery and as a result will reduce it's life. nikred 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the battery is full after the power cut phase is over, then it's better to switch it off because you don't want to reduce battery life. Keep the inverter charged before rain is about to arrive, like if you see dense clouds outside. velu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have service the battery regularly once in 6 months. MechEng 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mariyam Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 @velu Conceal the wiring which is coming from the mains to the inverter. I'm sure it may be hazard keeping it dangling around in the open. And get that wall painted. Bangalore still has load shedding? beetle and velu 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
