We always just end up using an Eaton Solar-Ready(75A solar) and building
our own. Very cost effective and you can get the distribution configuration
you require custom as needed (8/12 all the way to 40/40 I believe). Two
pieces of 2" Sched40 as verticals into 36" holes with concrete and
DeepUnistrut as horizontals. Cheap and extremely robust.

Dave,
I would agree with you regarding the 175 amp main breaker
leaving plenty of headroom for power to a residence. The only exception
I'm aware of around these parts (No. Sierra) is the all electric house that
also has a ground source heat pump with heat strips for back-up. If the
GSHP can't keep up and the heat strips kick in, you're looking at about a
third of that 175 amps going to just heating. We've also done the swap to
175 amp and its worked, so far, but...

Hi William,
It is unlikely that you will find a 200A panel with 60A of backfeed
capacity. You can reduce the main breaker to 175A though and then any 200A
panel would work. I have never seen any residence come any where close to
drawing that much current that it would trip. We do it fairly often and
have never had an issue. Then you get 65A of backfeed capacity.
Cheers,
Dave
