In an off-grid situation I'm looking for a strategy to manage transfer from generator power to inverter power because I have a lot of high startup load appliances planned for a system. Think 8 mini-refrigerators, one sub-z large refrigerator, and an under-cabinet ice maker, not to mention air conditioning. I would like to start these loads in stages if they all call to start up immediately upon system startup or during ATS switch over. Any ideas?
I guess while I'm on the subject I should ask about my eye-roll, keep-me-up-a-night, giving-me-heartburn problem with this ice maker. It's going to be outdoors in Florida and they expect it to make 25-50 pounds of ice per day. I am finding it really hard to estimate energy use for this appliance. Any ideas (other than the obvious "don't do it" answer)? Jason Szumlanski Florida Solar Design Group
