Has anyone evaluated this battery company? https://a1solarstore.com/var/attachments/product/10578/EnpowerSmartSwitch-DS-EN-US_-DS.pdf
The company, Enphase, makes PV microinverters a number of people here use. Also battery/inverter units.
This product is transfer switch and auto-transformer. It has some electronics to monitor grid voltage/frequency and decide when to disconnect.
It appears to require Enphase Enpower an IQ Envoy according to instructions. Obviously easiest to use a company's supported equipment together, but possibly the transfer switch could work with other equipment.
Probably their Encharge can connect in parallel with the grid for peak shaving and the like in addition to battery backup with grid disconnected. Unlike generator input which would only connect when grid disconnected. So communication between their products supports this.
