2. Ryan, Technical Support Manager ryan@midnitesolar.com 360-403-7207 XT151

3. What type of system do I need? *Off Grid. *Battery Based Grid Tie. *AC Coupled. All of MidNite Solar’s Pre Wired systems are fully customizable for your needs MidNite Solar 360-403-7207

4. Off Grid MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *Stand alone system *Will not sell back to the utility *Various inverters available for Off Grid (Some will do both) *120 or 120/240?

5. Grid Tie with Battery backup MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *Sells to the grid *Runs critical loads during grid failure *Do you need 120vac or 120/240vac *Some models support generator input as well

6. AC Coupled MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *Adds battery backup to a purely grid tie system. *Adds some complexity to the system. *Best suited for existing grid tie systems as an add on.

7. AC Coupled MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *Growing market segment *Can be confusing! *Can be complicated! *Numerous ways to go *MidNite has taken most of the mystique out of the equation

8. What is AC Coupled ? MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 AC Coupling is a controlled back feed to a battery based inverter A back feed is hooking up AC to the output of an inverter AC coupling is a synchronized back feed. The grid tie inverter shifts frequency to match the battery based inverter before connecting. This makes it ok to do

9. What is AC Coupled ? MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 Not all battery based sinewave inverters are capable of backfeed. Your choices in North America are: SMA Sunny Island Outback FX, VFX and Radian Magnum PAE series Schneider XW series

10. What is AC Coupled ? MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *Magnum and OutBack inverters sense circuits that control charging are on the AC inputs not the output, therefore cannot control the charging *These inverters charge wide open and cannot taper off. *A relay is required to disconnect the GT

11. What is AC Coupled ? MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *SMA and Schneider use frequency shift to knock the GT inverter offline to stop the charging. *The Sunny Island will control a Sunny Boy to do tapered charging.

12. Generators and AC Coupled MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *Radian and the Schneider have 2 AC inputs so a generator can be added. *Provisions must be added to disconnect the GT inverter when the generator runs or the GT will try to sell to the Inverter.

13. Sizing of the Off Grid inverter MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *Outback, Magnum and Schneider have a 1:1 ratio limit. *SMA has a 2:1 ratio *The customer may not need all of the grid tie solar as part of the ac coupled.

14. Outback FX series MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *120 vac per single unit. *Either Grid tie or Off Grid not both. Both AC couple. *Grid tie models (G series) does not play well with generators. *Smaller scale and expandable. *12,24 and 48VDC models available

15. Quad Off Grid Outback Prewired MidNite Solar 360-403-7207

16. Outback Radian MidNite Solar 360-403-7207 *Grid tie or Offgrid Supports both AC coupled as well *120/240 in a single unit *Has 2 AC inputs (2nd for generator) *8,000 watts per unit, Stackable *48VDC model *Requires relays for AC coupled
