I currently have a 10000w Solaredge inverter with 11.4kw panels and a 6000w Growatt inverter with 5.9 kw of panels that are both grid tied. The Growatt back feeds a sub panel that is tied into the main panel and the Solaredge is backed directly into the main panel. I currently do not have any battery backup.
I am thinking of modifying the system to allow for battery backup using AC coupling into either a Sol Arc 15k or EG4 18k. I would replace the Growatt inverter with the new inverter and then feed the Solaredge inverter into the gen port on the new inverter.
My question is would I have to create a new sub panel that has my grid lugs and tie in the new inverter grid connection do a whole home backup and have the load port connected to my old main panel? If I understand things correctly I can’t have the grid and load connections of the new inverter tied into the same panel.
