Solar energy sources are widely available, but in the form of DC source. It is connected in distribution system by means of converting DC/AC supply. It is achieved by means of inverter. To get efficient AC source we use multilevel inverter (MLI). The popularly used inverter is cascaded H-bridge MLI. As the step increases, the AC output nearly becomes same as sinusoidal. The purpose of the proje...
