David,

Hard to say about the NEC or UL, but is this a method approved and
recommended by SMA (or Proven)?
Neither component in your mix is approved (yet) by UL, not that that means
anything, but how will you get approval from the utility when using
non-listed equipment??

WindyBoy 2500W inverters (grid-tied battery free.)  A question came up that
I hope one of you know the answer to.  Does either NEC or UL prohibit a
single DC source (e.g., 300 VDC from the Proven controller) from supplying
two inverters in parallel?  Stated another way, is each inverter required to
have a seperate DC source.
