[RE-wrenches] Will IQ8 microinverters backfeed a generator during grid interruptions

[Zeke Yewdall]

In that case, we're getting way off track and way more complicated :P

Just put a contactor between the PV array and the POI using the NC
contacts, with the coil powered off the generator.  Then the PV array can
never backfeed the generator because it'll be turned off anytime the
generator is running.

Thanks but I'm just trying to grid-tie a small Enphase array without ESS
where the point of interconnection is on the customer side of the
generator/ATS.

Trying to use existing wires in place to simplify and lower costs...but the
generator is my constraint because I need the PoI to be on line side of the
ATS.
