You might have to add this panel as part of the power inlet equipment. I'd feed the minisplit off this 240V panel and subfeed 120V to the AC IN on the inverter. In turn, the inverter can supply a load center with 120V ONLY circuits. <br></div><div><br></div><div>-Matt<br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Oct 18, 2022 at 1:30 PM Kristopher Schmid via RE-wrenches <<a href="mailto:re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org" target="_blank">re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi All,</div><div><br></div><div>I am hoping that someone on the list can help me think this one through.</div><div><br></div><div>I have a client that builds tiny portable homes. He is working on one where his client supplied the solar modules, charge controller, batteries, inverter, etc. They bought them through some dot com. The tiny home has a 240 volt mini split that they want to use when plugged into the grid. The inverter that they bought is a 120 volt. The inverter is not grid tied, but does have a 120 volt grid input for battery charging / pass thru. <br></div><div><br></div><div>So, my issue is, how can I make this work? I am thinking of using a 50 amp automatic transfer switch like a Surge-Guard-40100 and connecting the solar inverter as primary and grid as backup but am not sure if that unit will disconnect the grid with only one leg energized.
