I'm not a fan of this strategy because it is not failsafe. Contactors fail.
When the coil fails to open the contactor, you will have the PV AC coupled
with the generator If he normally closed contactor is used in this manner.
I think the question needs to be the converse: How do you turn the PV on
I’ll usually use a 60 amp contactor with 240Vac coil.
The generator powers the coil and opens the Normally Closed contacts
disconnecting the grid tie inverter.

Hi,
I’m looking for suggestions on a remote control 60 amp contactor. It can
either be true wireless or send a signal down an AC power line to open /
close contact at the other end.
I’m trying to figure out a non-wired way to turn an AC coupled inverter off
when the generator is running, as advise
That was a bit of a cavalier statement on my part. On paper the tech specs
look good.
The warranty (60% after ten years or 3650 cycles) and initial track record
is what I think is mediocre. .
I guess in comparison to Blue Planet most battery warranties look mediocre.

Wrenches,
In order to step up our commissioning and testing game and to take
proactive steps to spot isolation faults and test insulation resistance
prior to our systems getting PTO it is time to invest in a Megger. I am

Rail is actually more likely to be damaged. It’s hard to find pallets long
enough and the ends get dinged by forks. I got insurance for $50 and
ordered a couple extra.

One down side to arranging your own shipping is that you are also usually
shifting the responsibility for any damage upon yourself to deal with in
case you need to make a claim.. Whereas if your distributor ships it they
are responsible for the claim process. Chunks of metal like many racking
sys
I'm curious what you consider mediocre about the HomeGrid?
