Ok, so 35A min., but what about maximum? A 200A mains panels allows 120% max back feed correct? Confused..... Jeremy All Solar Sent via BlackBerry. Sorry for typos and shorthand!

The inverter may have a higher "pass through rating" to support the loads and so is likely the reason a 60 Amp breaker is specified. The pass through rating is typically based on the size of the isolation relay and is usually higher than the inverter's continuous power rating.

Sent: Sunday, December 30, 2012 10:35 AM To: re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Subject: [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. 6000รท240=25X1.25=31.25A. We cannot exceed a 30A breaker? Help me understand this. Jeremy All Solar Sent via BlackBerry.
