What voltage LG battery?  Midnight has large (100, 175, 250 A) DC shunt trip breakers that are 125 v rated.  They also have 15 and 20 A 600 V rated remote trip breakers.

You would need a shunt trip rated @600vdc , 25 amps I'm guessing. A DC rated contactor might be better, but where to find either? And what control voltage will the ST or contactor use? I assume its grid-tie if an AHJ is involved. The LG RESU would also require both pos and neg be switched off (ungrounded neg) for code compliance. You are probably best off running the battery leads outside to a 600vdc dp safety switch. And then back it's only 10 ga, wire
back and forth.

Very interesting, l have a JHA that is requiring a shunt trip for the LG battery, any ideas here

    Hello,
    Any of you ever use a 120vac-enabled shunt trip breaker on the
    inverter output at the main load panel, and have it controlled by
    a small AC disconnect switch outside?
    I say offgrid because I doubt any utility would grid-tie approve
    as an outdoor disco, it since it does not visibly open the
    inverter output power wires.

    But it wound save in round-trip inverter wiring outside and back
    in to the load center, and perhaps a big AC outdoor disco in
    larger systems.
