What brands of generators have you had good experience
synching with off-grid inverters (Outback, Magnum, Xantrex)? We sell
Kohler, but we'd like to offer an alternative (that we could
sell). I've heard good things about Honda, but I've heard that you need
to be a Honda dealer to sell them. Any suggestions?

The issue of what will or will not hurt an inverter, when

generator, does not seem to be resolved. The fail safe method, of
course, is to connect to the line side of the transfer switch.
Other than that, there are varied views.
There are systems in operation that intentionally AC couple generators
to
on grid inverters. A post on the List had linked to an article
about such a system, but so far I can't find the information.
Has anyone else had problems with isolation relays? This was a
recommended method that didn't work for me.
