The invention provides a high-frequency isolation-type five-level 
inverter. The high-frequency isolation-type five-level 
inverter consists of an input direct-current 
power supply unit, 
voltage-dividing capacitors, a high-frequency isolation-type five-level conversion unit, a high-frequency 
isolation transformer, a cyclic wave converter, an output filter and an output alternating-
current load, wherein on the basis of a full-bridge 
inverter, four capacitors are connected to two ends of an input direct-
current voltage source in parallel to divide the 
voltage, so that five levels of Ui / 2, Ui / 4, 0, minus Ui / 4, minus Ui / 2 can be generated on the front end of the 
transformer, the five levels also can be sensed by a 
transformer side edge, the 
voltage stress on a switch tube can be reduced, and the waveform quality of the output voltage can be improved. The inverter has two levels of power transformation (
direct current (DC)-
high frequency alternating current (HFAC)-
low frequency alternating current (LFAC)) and has the advantages of bi-directional 
power flow, 
low voltage stress on a switch device, good voltage spectrum characteristics on the front end of the output filter, small size of the output filter, 
low voltage stress on the switch tube and capability for electrically isolating the alternating-
current load and the direct-current power supply in a high-frequency manner. The inverter can be applied to the application field with higher voltage and large power.
