Just curious... I've done some searching but came up empty.
Would there be a way to use solar during the day and automatically transfer back to the grid when the battery bank gets to a certain voltage point or at night when the sun goes down?
Kinda like how a generator transfer switch functions... but backwards. Run on the generator (solar in this case) as the primary and switch to the grid automatically when solar is down?
Has anyone heard of doing this? What type of transfer switch would be needed? Is it safe/legal?
Basically, don't want to back feed the meter or sell power to the power company. I assume a grid tie inverter is the same thing... Im just curious if there is an automatic way of disconnecting completely from the grid when on solar... then back to the grid when not. Make sense? Keep both systems separate at all times is what I'd like to do.
