Iphampu yamanzi yelanga ye-AC iyisisetshenziswa esisebenzisa amandla elanga ukushayela ukusebenza kwepompo yamanzi.Ikakhulukazi iqukethe iphaneli yelanga, isilawuli, inverter kanye nephampu yamanzi.Iphaneli yelanga inesibopho sokuguqula amandla elanga abe yimanje eqondile, bese ngokusebenzisa isilawuli kanye ne-inverter ukuguqula i-current eqondile ibe yamanje eshintshanayo, futhi ekugcineni iqhube iphampu yamanzi.
Iphampu yamanzi yelanga ye-AC iwuhlobo lwepompo yamanzi esebenza kusetshenziswa ugesi okhiqizwe kumaphaneli elanga axhunywe kumthombo wamandla wamanje oshintshanayo (AC).Ngokuvamile isetshenziselwa ukupompa amanzi ezindaweni ezikude lapho ugesi wegridi ungatholakali noma ungathembeki khona.
