[RE-wrenches] Multiple inverters through the same disconnect

The first thought I have is the inverters have a maximum input current
rating if you parallel then
you need overcurrent protective device downstream from the paralleling
disconnect.  Also PV systems 690.13
must disconnect all conductors from all sources of power.
I agree your solution appears to be correct.  multiple inverters on a
single disconnect happen with microinverters.
