<div dir="ltr">Hi Chris,<div><br></div><div>I think this would be a product mainly used in existing grid-tied retrofits. If there is an existing grid-tied only inverter, you could route the DC conductors through this transfer switch first giving the homeowner a grid-tied or off-grid option if the grid was down. You'd still need another battery based inverter with an AC transfer switch, critical load panel etc.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jun 3, 2015 at 6:02 AM, Chris Mason <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cometenergysystems@gmail.com" target="_blank">cometenergysystems@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">I'm having trouble understanding the application for this product.

WHy would you want to have the Radian as a backup AND have a grid tied inverter, and have to change over a manual switch to provide power to the CC? What am I missing?</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="h5"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jun 2, 2015 at 4:46 PM, Tom Lane <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:tom@ecs-solar.com" target="_blank">tom@ecs-solar.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I would appreciate more opinions and comments on the new Morningstar Controller for Grid connected systems .
