Solar Backfeed Issue

[shortcircuit2]

If it is behind a breaker why does it have to be service rated?

Service rated equipment would have provisions for neutral to ground bonding? And listed as such.

Sorry. I asked you why when you told me not to.

Yes, I did. :rant:

I just go by what panel labels say. They say different things. Here's one that gives you options and would be suitable if used in the situation in this thread (notwithstanding the other issues). Note the business about not being used and a lighting and appliance branch circuit panelboard. So you are good to feed other panels, and, I would argue, install solar under 705.12(A). Note also that there's a provision for bonding the neutral.

This happens to be a Murray.
