Solar wiring !
Why not ? The wires coming from solar mptt controller to batteries , could they not go to the large feed wires that feed the invertor .Save wire and the inverter has BIG wires coming to it . In other ...

It is less of a problem when connecting at the battery bank. I did encounter it when I had flooded batteries. The solution was to switch off the panels so I could start the inverter, and then restart the solar.
Inverters do have parasitic draws even when turned off. I have switches to disconnect the inverter from the DC source.

One small fly in the ointment. If the solar goes above the cut out voltage on the inverter you won't be too happy for the inverter to be cycling on and off. The work around is to have a switch on the input side of the solar so you can turn it off to prevent over voltage.
Would the inverter not do the same thing if the charge controller wires were connected directly to the battery?
