You can specify your system as an inter-tie System:
 This photograph is taken from the inside of an Inter-tie Powerhouse. The inverter output is wired directly into your panel. It is a circuit just like your other circuits except it supplies electricity instead of using it! This system does not provide back-up power. |
An inter-tie system will reduce your electric bill by allowing you to sell electricity back to the utility. When the sun is shining, your meter will turn backward if you making more electricity than you are using.
There is no change in the electricity coming into your house. The only change is that your utility bill will decrease. The inter-tie system is extremely simple. It consists of a Powerhouse with AT LEAST 1000 Watts of solar panels, and an inter-tie inverter like the 2500 watt Xantrex pictured here.
The Inter-Tie Powerhouse is designed to meet NEC code. Local codes vary from area to area. We work with your local electrician to meet your local authorities’ requirements.
These systems qualify for the $2000 Federal tax credit (as do all Independent Energy Systems in this brochure.) These systems may qualify for various state and local credits or rebates as well.
These are fixed structure units (axles removed) and qualify for fixed structure financing).

The Combi:
 2000 Watt Powerhouse, Russ, a happy owner and friend. |
You can have an inter-tie system that PROVIDES BACK-UP POWER when the grid is down!
A shortcoming of inter-tie systems is that when the utility is down, you have no power! The combi is designed for people who want to sell power to the utility, and also want a reliable power source when the utility is down.
A Combi system interconnects with the utility AND provides emergency power when the utility is down. It requires the addition of batteries (which the inter-tie system does not have), an extra controller, and a standalone inverter.
The following components are added to an inter-tie system to provide electricity when the grid is down:
- Twelve deep cycle 220 amp hour batteries
- Honda powered generator
- 48 volt to 12 volt converter
- Coleman PMP 3000 watt inverter
- All wiring and controls
