  ABSTRACT: Multi input and multi output converters are becoming popular because they are cost effective and compact. This paper proposes a multi input multi output converter for Grid-Solar power integration for uninterrupted power supply. The proposed converter uses four winding transformer with two primary windings and two secondary windings. The grid supply is connected to the first winding of transformer through rectifier-inverter for controlled power transfer. The solar energy is inverted and applied to the second winding of primary. Two output ports are considered. The circuit is designed to get zero current switching during turn-off and zero voltage switching during turn-on to alleviate the switching losses. The simulation results for the proposed configuration are presented in this paper.
