<p>I've controlled Generac Guardians, using the transfer switch and adding relays so the inverter decides when it should start. These were out of warranty units. Checking with Generac about a proposed new generator, I was told that it would void the warranty to do that. I was told that a new Generac is supposed to come our around the end of the year that can be controlled by an inverter.</p>

<div style="overflow-wrap: break-word;">Wrenches,
<div> </div>
<div>I'm looking to tie in a Generac Powerpact 7.5kW generator with transfer switch to a Sol-Ark 12kW. The Sol-Ark has a two wire start (NO or NC) capability, however, the Generac transfer switch operates on loss of 240V. Is my only option to use a relay driven by the two wire start to drop 240V to the transfer switch? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you,</div>
