system does <strong>not automatically need an external ATS<\/strong>. An automatic transfer switch can be useful when two AC sources\u2014most commonly the utility grid and a generator\u2014must be selected before feeding an approved inverter AC input or backup AC bus. However, some hybrid inverters already provide a dedicated generator input, generator-control function or internal transfer architecture. The correct design depends on the exact inverter model, generator interface and manufacturer-approved system diagram. <span class=\"ly-ref\">[1][2][3]<\/span>\r\n  <\/p>\r\n\r\n  <div class=\"ly-quick\">\r\n    <span class=\"ly-kicker\">Quick Answer<\/span>\r\n    <p><strong>Start with the inverter manual, not with the ATS.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n    <p>If grid and generator must share one approved AC connection, an external ATS may be used to select the source.
