[RE-wrenches] Split Phase Load Rating

[Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar]

>From what I have seen most folks get into trouble with split phase because
they are using too small of an inverter. For a home or larger I only use
the big radians or an XW's.

 Some do have problems because they are refitting an old 120vac power
system to split phase and the load panel was never balanced at all.
