[RE-wrenches] Inverter bypass

[William Miller]

Friends:



Interesting topic.  Thanks to all for the various options.



If we are going to support off-grid customers we insist they have a
generator and bypass capabilities.  We usually fabricate our own
interlocks.  Sure they are not UL listed, but no inspector has balked as of
yet.



Below is an example for a three inverter Radian system:

Hi All,



I have a standalone system that was upgraded from an FX inverter to a
Radian WITHOUT  the companion load center.  I would like to add an inverter
bypass circuit to operate the house on generator power.  There used to be a
4 slot breaker panel (SqD?) with the rocker switch preventing both breakers
from being in the on position simultaneously.  I have not been able to find
it on the interweb.  Anyone know of something out there that would meet my
needs?
