No, older non frequency shift BB inverters don’t communicate that way. They have no communication with a Rule 21 GT inverter.
The BB, it will just keep charging and charging with any extra energy coming from the GT inverter. The BB has no regulation, there is no absorb or float, just charge. jay peltz power > On Nov 3, 2019, at 4:31 PM, Mark Frye <ma...@berkeleysolar.com> wrote: > > OK, I am hearing this over and over and I just want to confirm that is true > even if the BB is older and does not have "NEW Frequency Shifting AC > Coupling". > > On 11/3/2019 4:26 PM, Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar wrote: >> The BB inverter will drive the grid inverter off frequency because it is >> full/floating and the grid tie will stop producing power.
