Before the power from any generator is connected to the grid the electric power quality must meet certain standards. The MCHP uses advanced Honda solid-state inverter technology to automatically insure that the output power supplied to the home and to the electric grid is noise free, is the proper voltage and is synchronized with the AC power of the grid. In the event of a power failure the inverter immediately detects this upset condition and stops delivering power to the grid. This safety feature protects the grid equipment and service personnel.
