Kevin125 4,772 Posted October 18, 2021 Data Centers do this with N+1 generator arrays. I don’t deal with those kinds of systems, but they are likely expensive as hell and way too big for a residential generators. As I think about it, they probably feed the generators in the very big inverters, which is where the sine wave out is controlled. 3 phase in their case. Also accepts a feed from batteries to maintain power during the generator start process. This may be a problem requiring too much stuff for a typical house. It may be easier to break out the panel to be fed by two different generators. One for lights and similar loads plus critical stuff like a fridge. Then the other larger gen/panel for well pumps, AC units, furnace blowers, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
