I have the EP900 and four B500s. I use it to supply power when my time of use rates are high and when I lose grid power. I would like to keep the essential loads powered without having to throw the Reliant manual transfer switch that came with the EP900.This way if I am not home when grid power goes out or power comes back on I know those circuits will be powered.
- Can I always keep the manual transfer switch on the battery side? I have 6000 watts of solar hooked up to the Reliant subpanel. My essential loads will never exceed 2000 watts.
- If not, is there an automatic transfer switch I can buy? In that case should I not use the Reliant subpanel?
