I've been doing a little searching and have not been able to get a clear answer on the power output of the Generator line with the Smart Load setting turned on.

For my particular installation, I will be setting the the system with the "On Grid Always On" option turned on.

With regards to the physical installation, I am planning on connecting the Smart Load output to a subpanel, which will have my 2 A/C units connected to it. The intent to to turn off both units during a power outage.

My question is with regards to the on grid capability of that Smart Load output.

Can someone confirm if the Smart Load output has limited current output or if it shares up to the 200A coming in from the grid? In other words, if I have 200A service coming into my Sol-Ark 15k, can I feed 80A to the LOAD line and 80A to the GEN smart load output line?

I understand, I'll rarely, if ever be in that situation, but I'm trying to understand how the two outputs can work.

Thank you
 
Smart load has a 100 amp limit on the 15k.
Load has a 200 amp limit.
Grid has a 200 amp limit.

The 200 amps from the grid can be split up to the limit of the connection.
