micro sine, [RE-wrenches]

Hi All,

 The micro sines as I understand it,  were no longer imported when the hz/voltage
windows were tightned.  Also as it has a open architecture, ( so you can change
all that) they didn't want to go through all the UL hassles and expense of
redesign. They sell way more in the EU anyway.

Question about the SW situation.??

The units are out of spec because they "can " island when the other safety
features volts,hz are defeated?  is this correct?

And quiry to those engineers out there.  How close do you have to keep the watts
to island a SW with the other safety features NOT working?  I would love to know
how the test was run and over what parameters such as time, watts etc.

Thanks all,

jay
