<DIV><SPAN class=119113621-17062015><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>If was
my customer, I'd advise an XW series inverter, as it has dual AC inputs. You can
have one for grid, one for gen backup. XW's are native 120/240 but you can field
adapt to 120V if it's easier to wire in with existing wiring. If site has any
surplus power has capability to synch with grid and back feed.

<DIV><SPAN class=119113621-17062015><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Could
do the same thing with an SW or Magnum with single AC input and external

<DIV class=WordSection1>
<P class=MsoNormal>All in all what are the best options for replacement of a
failed Trace SW4024. The home was off grid for years and now is operated
primarily with the grid being used as to charge the batteries when the solar
is deficient. There is a generator on site to back up the grid also. Utility
grid is also used for some primary loads in the neighborhood (maple syrup
production), but that is a separate system from the Trace.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The inverter system is a relatively simple 120VAC deal (one
inverter).<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I have not had my hands on the new Schneider inverters. Are
they the best swap in for this home? <o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>- Relative time saving ease for the AC and DC wiring is
fairly important, but not the only consideration.<o:p></o:p></P>
