4. Decide Backup Circuits
a. Subpanels are recommended and are required if you have Arc-Fault / GFI breakers.
b. Important: Make sure to keep within inverter amperage limits (per inverter):
On Grid = 63A continuous (pass-through)
Off Grid = 37.5A continuous/83A peak
c. Verify each load circuit by measuring typical and max Amps with a clip-on Amp meter. Amps x
120V = Watts
d. If you have Arc-Fault / GFI breakers in your main panel we recommend that you install a
subpanel for your backup loads, not a multi-circuit transfer switch.
