Regarding "Limited to Load". I question "This mode will neither sell back to the Home or Grid." I take that to mean "sell back" out of the "Grid" connection on the Sol-Ark. Does home refer to the Grid connection, the Load connection or both? It's ambiguous.When I went through the manual Limited to home offer more options than limited to load and it better fit my needs. I do have an interconnect agreement so we do grid sell our excess. After reading through it again my settings may not apply to limited to load. I read it to say limited to load reduces inverter output to match the loads so that is limiting your PV production to only what you need. No excess will be grid or home sold. So that means your PV production is being throttled back to make your loads only. I am wired to my load center and not a sub panel. Works great and when I said I am doing what you want I am.
I believe that "Limited to Home" is used when your Sol-Ark Grid terminals are wired as a sub-panel to your main load center. You would then put CTs ahead of your main load center. The Sol-Ark will then push power back to the load center but only enough so that your main load center will not push power back to the meter. Hence "Zero-Metering"
