Think of it as having a battery charger connected to your car battery...when the grid goes down do you have to do anything?

On a state of the art SMA Sunny Island system you can connect the grid to the generator input of the inverter and the grid operator doesn't need to know a damn thing....but of course there is no grid feed....
firstly if you read the whole of what i typed and what i quoted youd see we were only talking bout grid connected setups
and secondly well plain you wouldnt need this caveat you quoted me on as with off grid as there is no way it could charge from the grid

yes i know all about off grid systems and still chose this route with my current circumstances , i was just answering the question asked
