Thanks to all who wrote. I'll pass on all posts. There's not a whole lot of
available information, it appears.

Eric, I downloaded the Ward Bower/Sandia paper (easier to find via Google
than via Sandia's website) and read it. It is primarily focused on NEC
confusion and GFI failures with backfed AC modules (the Microsine, I
assume), which we have never promoted or encountered, so it's not relevant
to the inspector's question.

Any more experience will be appreciated--keep posting.
