    A lot of places require a house to have electric service. Not just electricity available on site, but service from the utility. Otherwise it’s not livable.

      So bring electric into a circuit panel that powers nothing but a house plug and pay a tiny amt for the electricity used. Get your solar and batteries connected to a separate panel that powers everything else.

        This exactly. And if you’re close to running out of batteries, you have mains you can draw from.
