Summary In this paper, a modified H‐bridge 5‐level inverter has been proposed. The inverter has the lower number of switches than the similar structures, and this feature causes low implementation cost. A passive LC filter is designed to decrease the THDV, and simulation results prove that THDV value has been decreased, significantly. As well, high switching frequency versus low power dissipation is another important feature of the proposed inverter. The results verification of the proposed system for a 9‐kVA prototype is demonstrated successfully using MATLAB/Simulink. Also, a 3‐kVA prototype is built to verify the validity of simulation results of the proposed inverter.
