Transfer Switch Wiring Diagrams and EMS location choice

[ac7880]

Transfer Switch Wiring Diagrams and EMS location decision:

In this setup, the invertor feeds all circuit breakers. If yours
only feeds select circuits, then you are likely wired like figure C.

This may help in determing where to install your EMS.
