I have a Schindler inverter and can confirm they will not run on 120 degree split phase. I needed to test one and couldn't do it at work. The plant is 3-phase. Since they will parallel with the utility they must have 180 degree split phase power coming in. The only way around it is to have 3...

You may want to consider adding a MEP831a to the mix. That inverter will load share and automatically run the generator to charge batteries or boost the inverter output. That is my plan at least.

Thats the same inverter that I'm considering. I'm looking at doing a hybrid with a MEP831a as a booster/battery charger. North Carolina is dropping its solar tax credits at the end of the year. :( I'm putting in solar water heating now and over time will build a solar electric system. That...

The Xantrex line of inverters can be configured 3-phase. That option will be a little more expensive since you have to buy 3 instead of 2. Keep us posted on your build. I for one am very interested in knowing how it goes.

If your house hasn't be built yet you may find it cheaper to wire it 3-phase than doing a transformer of the output of the generator. Installing a 3-phase panel is pretty much the only difference. You would wire your 120v and 208v circuits just the same. Most 240v appliances will run fine on...

Are you going to do the single phase mod on the generator or will you wire the house for 3 phase?
