I hate to get in the way of a good
public hanging but could I say a few things?
1- I'm installing a Sol-Ark 15 right now. In fact, spent a few hours trying to track down a rather random arc fault error most of this afternoon.
2 - I've never said anything bad or even attempted to imply anything bad Sol-Arks or any other AIO. No SolArk et al ax today or ever in the past.
3 - I've already stated I wasn't complaining about SolArk. You can choose to believe that or not or perhaps you only read the parts of my post you wanted to. I've been guilty of that myself.
4- I certainly didn't say that Sol-Ark was doing anything "dangerous or impossible" and didn't even remotely imply it. Those were your words, not mine.
5 - Feel free to read my original post with the above in mind and maybe what you'll see is that I was expressing surprise AND
admitting ignorance. My pointing out that the Schneider was limited to 60 amps was intended to illustrate a limitation compared to a 200 amp transfer switch arrangement. Did I did I actually say Schneider was better? I can't even see where it was implied.
As I mentioned above, I've not said one bad thing about SolArks or AIO's in this thread or at any time in the past. Could you be confusing me for someone else and/or be spring loaded to anything that you see against SolArk, imaginary or not. It appears that if anyone doesn't use "SolArk" and "perfect" in the same sentence it you take offense. Take it up with someone else, please as I might forget to follow your rules.
What I was trying to say is that I was ignorant about the benefits of using a transfer switch with a SolArk and trying to point out that others could be helped, particularly during the planning stages if they knew this information. Transfer switches have always been my practice, but the AIO is new to me. The irony is that is I was so impressed with everything else I'd heard about Sol-Ark it seemed odd that their "failure mode" didn't result in the AC In being fed to the AC Out.
Months later you take a shot at me out of the blue for something you thought I said, and I responded accordingly not realizing that you thought I was the chief architect and prosecutor Sol-Ark and all AIO's.
Feel free to proceed with the public hanging, just try to supply evidence before you make any more accusations.
Cheers!
