ISOLITE COMPLIANT PRODUCTS
BAA & TAA
- Applies to infrastructure projects which receive Federal financial assistance/grants
- Forces all subcomponents to be constructed of >55% domestically sources materials
Build America, Buy America

WHAT ABOUT BABA?
BAA & TAA
ISOLITE
INVERTER BREAKERS
Chalk Talk
- Makes no allowance for products that are manufactured in the US but from foreign sourced subcomponents
- We are not able to make the statement that our BAA/TAA compliant products are also BABA
- Waivers and exemptions exist, reach out to us and we can work with you

NOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT BREAKERS
GEAR SHIFT...
- Over current protection is required for branch circuits
- Small inverters are fed by branch circuit protection

WHY DO WE NEED BREAKERS?
BREAKERS
ISOLITE
INVERTER BREAKERS

Isolation & Maintenance
- Emergency lights must be disconnected to do electrical work
- Having zones isolated allows for maintenance of smaller groups of fixtures
Functionality & Control
- Breakers allow for switched and normally off behavior in larger inverters
- Breakers allow for switched and normally off behavior in larger inverters
- Smaller inverters do this without breakers
- E3MINI and E3U products don't have breaker options, they're protected internally and by the 20A branch circuit breaker
Smaller Inverters

WHEN MIGHT WE NOT NEED BREAKERS
BREAKERS
ISOLITE
INVERTER BREAKERS

Downstream Breaker Infrastructure
- Larger inverters can provide all their power on a non- breakered output if it's feeding a MLO/main breaker panel downstream
- The inverter is protected by the feed breaker and input breaker, the loads are protected by the downstream branch circuit breakers
- Maintenance requires de-energizing the inverter
![](https://s3.amazonaws.com/media-p.slid.es/uploads/1325111/images/11358938/E3MINI.png)
- Generally ABB for branch circuit breakers
We Designed E3, E3MAC, E3MAX With Specific Breakers

Circuit Breaker Options
- Normally On - Downstream ELCD devices or exit signs
- Normally Off - Emergency Only Lighting
- Switched - Controlled Lighting without ELCD devices
Trip Alarms Are Available in E3MAC and E3MAX
Option selection does impact the number of breakers available
- Set number of breakers for each output voltage in a mixed voltage system
- Multi-pole output breakers
We can accommodate requests for custom breaker configurations...
Generally, come up with some other type of customization
