Yes I have made such a connection to a Honda and Yamaha inverter generators, the
problem is how does the generator absorb extra power, everyone says it will fail
the generator control. Also the warentee problems. My reason for trying is
remote cabins with PV, batteries and when in use the system need battery
charging, when no one around no need ,solar and batteries are fine.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Generator and Enphase
I have a customer with a "30A Mechanically Interlocked Breaker" for their
generator feed at the main panel. My question is: If the home power is
transferred from utility to generator power, will the backfed PV see the
generator as grid power and sync up and produce? This is a nice Honda Generator
so the power should be fairly clean. Any experiences are appreciated.
Take Care,
