Hey Jay The voltage drop/wire size problems that would be encountered
pose a cost problem even @220 vts.Another thing that having a
fuse/breaker box at the pole is that if batteries were shut off ,when
the inverter was reconnected the charge rate would be 30 amps
ac(default setting). Unless you had a 250 awg @ 110vts and breaker to
anticipate this then it would trip the breaker at the pole unbeknown to
the customer.The "AC 1" light would blink the customer might think that
they are still getting a grid charge and possibly have the system shut
down due to low batt voltage. Seen this situation happen w/ undersized
generators and poorly educated customers.Where you are its a long trip
to reset the parameters.Good $$$ long ride!
