Hi

So the unit can be operated as a current sensing switch ..... my inverter can do this when generating over a preset threshold as standard .....

If you're serious in marketing this to pv owners you'd have a box with two sensors, one for usage and the other for generation, then have the ability to switch loads when the generation was X% greater than usage, but even that wouldn't suit all installations due to differences in wiring configurations .... you might also find that the 500W load switching limit would be a little problematic ...
