Sorry I'm late to the party. That inverter is not really setup for home backup. It would need something to recharge the batteries and a transfer switch. And it is not UL tested/approved.

You'd be better off with a Samlex system. They included the internal transfer switch.

Or an Outback system - GS8048A

Or a Sol-Ark system. This is the one to buy because it integrates solar charge controllers if you plan to use solar as well.

Any of these systems will allow you to integrate a generator along with the battery system.
