This install was done in the Hocking Hills region of Ohio, near Logan, Ohio. The system was configured to operate in Grid Zero mode. The system does not back feed the grid because net metering is not practical with the local utility company.

Grid Zero Mode
Outback Radian inverters have the ability to operate in Grid Zero mode. This mode is for locations that do not allow back feeding the grid. The system powers the loads from batteries, until the set points are reached. The grid provides the first 1KW of power to the loads. If the batteries have reached their grid zero set point, the grid will provide all of the power to the loads. The batteries are recharged by the solar panels during the day.
