Re: Inverter and transfer switch
You really have to figure out your plan on what you want the inverter to power and how long your bank will support your needs. That would drive how you integrate it into the panel(s).

Re: Inverter and transfer switch
Use the inverter for receptacles for running electronic equipment, lamps etc. Just ensure you get a pure sine unit.
I only use smaller inverters to assist me while I on the hook, like for my CPAP machine. I have no need for inverter wired into the panel. It is strictly a personal choice, for sure
