Hi Glen,
That model is a disconnect switch. What the system needs is a 4 pole transfer switch, automatic or manual, to connect the PV source to the charge controller.

Hello Gary Willit,
Yes, you've grasped my concept precisely and I agree, getting a high voltage DC transfer switch may nix this design. Sounds like a product for Midnite Solar to build.


We've been thinking about a 600V controller for years that would automatically charge your batteries when the grid goes down.

We don't know if that's the best use for our limited resource of 9 engineers.

But how big is this market I wonder ??
