With 30A working for the Lightning, does it make sense to oversize a Manual Transfer Switch (say 50A) for a future proof install? If so, what do I do for the outlet/truck connection?
Reading posts about the beta state of HIS (docs at least), and the need to free-up circuits for the FCSP 100A breaker, I am leaning to a transfer switch with a generator connection instead.
With a 400A main service on my house, 5 subpanels in 2 buildings, and my solar PV and inverters on my south facing barn, the HIS likely will not work for me. Optimally in future I could buy a 10kW or 24kW PV inverter that would keep the PV up when the grid down, treat the truck like a static battery, and remote disconnect the grid at the mains.
