Gridboss,flexboss21 , brightmount panel mounts, 280ah indoor battery, 16 panels up split into 3 mppts and running today for the first time , gridboss outside as a main disconnect with my 200amp main house panel as my critical load. Changed aluminum 4/0’s to copper. Changed the ground/neutral bond to the gridboss, and rewired the grounds and neutrals to their separate ways. Finally understanding the settings , which could have been explained better in the manual. That was a lot of work. And many calls to signature solar support who helped me along the way. I feel like leaving the lights on just for hahas.

Did you do an external RSD? If so what did you go with?
I originally thoughtI’d go with a 6000 or 12000 with just an indoor battery. But at 70 I figured go for flexboss as it’s the newest and the most advanced and runs thru a 90 amp breaker which means to me faster battery backup if needed. Also 21k solar possible . Yesterday partly cloudy … about 9 kWh gathered and stored. I use an average of 15kwh / day .. all this setting stuff that’s as not clear or labeled so that I cannot intuitively understand without sig solar’s support is slowly coming around. It’s a lot of similarly labeled choices. Building dept signed off yesterday. Glad I put gridboss outside as a main disconnect and rapid shutdown. Also I was somewhat put off by the front panel lights, but now welcome as I can see if on battery(hybrid light) or charging (both green lights on) when entering the house)
Gridboss has a rsd switch on the side … so rsd’s both inside and out and I will also wire one from flexboss to closer to my front entrance . This can be done easily with 24 v wire to flexboss , correct me if I’m wrong …. Solar safety stickers Also to be installed at disconnects and other spots so no one is confused if there ever was a problem

Are you looking for the external near the meter switch?
