<p class="MsoNormal">I see this system is on Optics. The GS4048A
inverter can do AC Coupling with frequency shift. It will need
to be upgraded from the current rev of 001.006.063 to
001.007.070 below is a link to that firmware.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Once the new firmware is installed will
need to change the default Installer password of 1732 to a

can go to the menu and enable AC Coupling.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style="font-size:13.5pt">What I am worried about is
the microinverter system operating when the utility goes
down and the microinverters continuing to operate and
charge the batteries as a load. I need to disconnect the
microinverter circuit only when the batteries are fully
charged in grid isolated mode. All the ways I can think
of that would normally work to deenergize the
microinverters automatically based upon battery voltage
won't work. I can submit a drawing if that would help. I
am trying not to run another conductor circuit from the
house to the garage. I realize that would solve the
problem, but it is an expensive solution. English is my
foreign native language.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Chris - If I'm following you
right, you have a PV system on a detached garage that
ties into a backup subpanel also in the garage? The code
only requires the RSID (rapid shutdown
initiation device) to be on the exterior of the
building. Would it work to put the RSID on the garage
exterior? You could route your PV circuits to a switch
or switches on the exterior of the garage on the way
down to the sub it ties into. You could also use a shunt
trip breaker(s) for the PV circuit(s). If for some
reason you need to have the RSID on the main house, it
gets trickier. Might need to trench?

<p>I would appreciate ideas on how to shut down a
proposed microinverter system on a garage that is
100% serviced by an Outback Radian multimode system
in the main building that has the garage on the back
up service panel in the main building.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Garage has a MLO subpanel that is connected to the
multimode back up service panel that is in the main
building.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>If grid goes down, we need to disconnect the
microinverter array so it does not overcharge the
battery system. If we use the battery voltage relay,
we will take out all the garage circuits, which
would disable its heating system, etc. We just want
to disconnect the microinverter circuit in the
garage subpanel.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Does anyone know of a product that could do this. I
would imagine a transmitter, or perhaps something
else besides a microinverter array?
