[RE-wrenches] AC Coupling Situation

Wrenches, Here is my situation: GT string inverter - 3 strings of mods, 10KW DC. We need to reduce the PV when the grid is down as to not overload the AC coupled inverters. Is there a good way to limit PV input like shunt off some power or short part of the array? (part) I was first thinking

[RE-wrenches] Point of Connection 705.12D2 Exception

Wrenches, Since the XW6048 calls for a 60A breaker to feed the inverter input and we are connecting back to the load side of a 200A panel is this correct. 6000÷240=25X1.25=31.25A. We cannot exceed a 30A breaker? Help me understand this. Jeremy All Solar Sent via BlackBerry. Sorry for typos and
