Inverter Wiring

[Gregory OConnor]

Pete on the old campers like yours and mine the inverters are not as
intuitive as the solid state thing a ma gigs of todays rv's.
Wanderlodge put in a bank of switches outside of the inverter to
prove cutting edge. If you look at the KurtFiles CD scan 511pdf you
will find a bluprint of how the '95 switches between inverter and
shore power. there are a row of switches labeled "circuit 14", 24,
13,28, and 7. I would guess the switches are 12volt tripped by a
signal from or lack of signal from the inverter. but carry 120volt
to pass.

If you have issue with one of the labeled items like the refer not
powering up on one of the AltCurrent choices, it could be the
switch not making the change over.
It appears as if the inverter is powered to items like the refer
after the large house style altcurrent circuit breaker panel. to
test you could run an item on shorepower and prove that tripping the
circuitB would shut it down then remove shore power and run the item
on inverter only and trip it at the panel. I think it will stay
powered
