Hi Drake:
I just spoke with Enphase customer service about interconnecting the
Enphase
to a battery inverters back up load center, and they will not void the warranty
for this. They only void the warranty for physically altering the inverters,
like changing the connector types. (OOPS, I am guilty of that one.)

Subject: Re: [RE-wrenches] Charge Control in AC coupled system
This is for an on grid system that would AC couple when the grid goes down.
Would that still void the warranty?
