Want to clarify- I have a whole home backup on my sol-ark-15k. In this situation there is no functional different if I choose “Limited power to home” or “Limited power to load” correct?
 
Correct - as long as nothing else is connected to the grid line.

Limit to Load uses the CT's that are built into the Load connection.

Limit to Home uses the CT's that are installed on the Grid Line somewhere between the Meter and the Grid Input.
If you have something connected between the Grid Input and the CT's, then those are taken into account (such as AC PV, main service panel, etc.).
 
Hi,

If I'm using Gen as Output (with smartload always on w/grid) in addition to Load output, will Limit to Load account for both output loads?

I have Load output connected to my critical loads panel (just one of my two existing panels which has lights/fridge/etc) and Gen output to a another less important panel (which has ev charger, hot tub, oven, etc).
