[0002] The present disclosure relates to power conversion, and more particularly to ensuring the connection of a load to an electric utility grid has an alternating current (AC) waveform at a desired (e.g., unity) power factor, regardless of the power factor of the load, and regardless of the power factor of the grid. The AC waveform may be generated by an inverte...
