[RE-wrenches] Xantrex 3 XW system bypass

[William Miller]

Jason:

I faced a similar dilemma when I installed my first triple XW system.  The 
dilemma had two aspects:  1. How can I configure the system to allow the 
customer to manually bypass with either the generator or the grid inputs? 
and 2. How can I fit all of the input and output circuit breakers required 
for a grid and generator system into one XW I/O cabinet?

I came up with a design that solved both problems.  Then I discovered 
another dilemma:  3. How can I market this design?
