Is it possible to install a SolarEdge StorEdge / LG Chem RESU10 system on a main distribution panel (MDP) and not a backed up loads panel? The solar PV will be a supply side connection, and we in theory could place a third party ATS downstream of the POI but before the main disconnect to isolate the MDP in backup mode. The battery generation could then tie right into the MDP and back up the whole house. The house has very minimal loads (older row house) not exceeding 5kW or 25A -- It's comparable to an average backed up loads panel with a few extra small loads. I’ve seen similar configurations done with Tesla PW2 and Sonnen Eco/Ecolinx as they have 200A ATS pass throughs that work well for this, but they’re also cost prohibitive and/or hard to get for applications like this. We'd also prefer not to install a redundant subpanel with all of the home's loads. Is this feasible or crazy?
