Before I read your interpretation, mine was quite different, and I
think simpler. I read it as saying simply that if the Sunny Island
sees AC, it can take current from that source if it needs it for
charging. A fuse, if blown, is no different than having no
external AC source from which to charge. <br>
Nothing else meant by this sectin.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Below is a quote from the Sunny Island
manual. I am interested if anyone can interpret this for me,
please.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:12.0pt">If there
are no additional fuses installed between the generator or
utility grid and the Sunny Island, the Sunny Island knows
whether it has a connection to the utility grid/to the
generator. The Sunny Island can then draw current from the
utility grid/from the generator.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:12.0pt">If there
are additional fuses or switches installed between the
Sunny Island and the utility grid/ the generator, the
Sunny Island cannot determine whether fuses or switches
are separated or whether there is no voltage available
from the utility grid/the generator. In either case the
Sunny Island cannot charge its battery and the loads that
are in operation will discharge the Sunny Island battery.
Check the additional fuses and switches regularly in order
that the Sunny Island battery only discharges when there
is no voltage available from the utility grid/the
generator.</span></i><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Here is what
I think it means: if there is additional power distribution
connected to the Sunny Island AC input, those loads may be
powered by inversion, inadvertently depleting the
batteries. What is unusual here is that with a standard
off-grind inverter, loads connected to the input side can
never be powered by the batteries, but they can be with an
AC coupled inverter? Is this correct?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Also, I have
not found it in the manual although I have looked: Can the
Sunny Island provide generator support (sync to and provide
additional power to loads that exceed the capability of the
generator?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Thank you
all very much.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
