Xantrex inverter installation
Hi Bruce,
I will try to answer, This may "NOT" be precise, as I do not have an AC wireing schematic. Under the sink behind the pegboard is a relay, You may hear it humming when plugged into shore power or Gennie. This is the inverter relay , energized with AC power , so the Inverter is out of the circuit always, when AC power is applied. I think the MicroWave is not on this circuit because of its' high current demand and the convection oven option that draws lots of Amps. And the oven, could inadvertently be turned to the "ON" position. I occationally use a three foot extention cord on the MicroWave to plug into the AC Inverter socket on the kitchen counter, to warm up a cup of coffee, when on the road. I use it only for a minute. The MicroWave plug is in the overhead cabinet above the sink far right. One must be "CAUTIOUS" with this outlaw plug wireing, because the Old Sharp, does not like the modified sine wave and the inverter does not like the high current demand. "SO,THIS IS NOT A GOOD PRACTICE". Yep, I am open to constructive criticism on this. Your new Inverter may have a pure sine wave output. I think the MicroWave draws about 10 amp to get started.
