<br>
He\u2019s looking for large AC chargers to charge this bank. The reason is total elimination of switch over delay from inverter to generator and back. <br>
<br>
One technique is to use inverters for this, but pretty pricey. <br>
<br>
Any recommendations as to equipment, brands etc? <br>
<br>
It would be a 208 3 phase AC side powered by a generator. <br>
<br>
Thx <br>
