    Solar Inverters and Generators?

    I have just install a solar invert-er at my warehouse, i want to ask weather it is a good idea to have a generator as a backup? or should i just relay on the solar invert-er?

    I guess the question is: Do you want power when the sun is not shining?

    I think that I would want backup power.

    Would a battery pack work with less trouble than maintaining a generator.

    Re: Solar Inverters and Generators?

    Is it a grid-tie inverter, or a hybrid inverter (grid tie with stand alone capabilities and connected to batteries)?
    How much load do you want to power during a power outage, and for how long?
