[RE-wrenches] Franklin Home Power

[Daniel Young]

I believe they do. They also have generator support with programable SOC trigger points. They can start either  2 wire start generators, or if the generator is existing and has a complicated signaling system, you can actually wire the Franklin smart module to the existing generator ATS and let Franklin kill the AC power to the ATS to force the generator to start.

Does anyone know if Franklin supports their AC-coupled battery solution in a completely off-grid scenario (no grid present)?

I need to install a demonstration system with ~40kWh capacity to run loads in an outdoor off-grid facility. It needs to be wall mounted, NEMA 3R, and have 10kW AC output rating minimum. Aesthetics are important.

I'm contemplating installing an Enphase 5P battery system, but it's not officially supported, even though I believe I can trick the system enough to get it commissioned and running in off-grid mode. If Franklin supports this, that's a checkmark in their column of the comparison chart.

I'm not opposed to a 48V DC battery system with a Sol-Ark 15k or something like that, but I think my options for wall-mount, outdoor, and beautiful are going to be limited.

I don't need any generator integration.
