<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>AC coupling with the OutBack off-grid
inverters and a typical batteryless grid-tie inverter doesn’t require any
additional transfer switches or protective relays – its actually pretty
simple depending on how fancy the battery charging regulation needs to be.
