Abstract
An apparatus comprising a first rectifier, wherein an output of the first rectifier is coupled to a first terminal, a second rectifier, wherein an output of the second rectifier is coupled to a second terminal, a first electronic switch configured to selectively route an alternating current (AC) signal to the first rectifier or the second rectifier, an inverter configured to operate in the event that the first electronic switch does not receive the AC signal to receive a direct current (DC) signal, and convert the DC signal to a second AC signal, a second electronic switch configured to selectively route the DC signal from the first terminal or the second terminal to the inverter, and a third electronic switch configured to selectively route the second AC signal to the first rectifier or the second rectifier.
