We are getting an off grid system. Grid ties will get fried along with everything else.

There is one major vulnerability and that is your grounding if you are still grid tied for power and solar for backup. This goes back to the NEC requirement that all grounding be common. I have gone with welding connectors to disconnect my inverters. It may still not be enough.
