With the advent of micros on the scene and the potential for using a generator on an on-grid property, are any of you using a transfer switch to isolate the genny and use the PV to feed the genny to reduce fuel consumption?

Are there issues with frequency and voltage?

How are the utilities looking at these types of installations? Favorable?

Would you use 2 transfer switches- one ahead of the other- to completely isolate the property or circuit panel to ensure there is no chance of a backfeed?

Is it just better to keep things isolated as two separate systems?
 
Regards,


Keith
