have looked at generator synchronisation with mains but cant find any equipment off the shelf that does it. and not sure of how to set it up so that if grid power goes off the generator will also go off. as the generator will power any relay connected to the mains and keep it on. then there would be a few linesmen somewhere that wont be happy.
A grid-connected solar rooftop system, sometimes referred to as a grid-tied or on-grid solar system, is a photovoltaic (PV) power generation system that operates in conjunction with the local electrical grid.
Yes, there are rules and regulations that you must comply with for solar generation.
