AC Wiring 87FC 35
Also check the "Attachments" on the forum home page menu list on the left. Curt Sprenger added a whole bunch of 87 wiring diagrams as attachments and the inverter circuit is one of them. He has a PT, but the wiring concept is the same.

Hi Robert and Dianne.



This is just one guy's opinion, but I think a 2K inverter is better installed by adding a small two breaker sub panel after the main AC panel. Then put 2 20 amp breakers in the sub panel and pick 2 useful circuits in the main panel and move them to the sub panel breakers. For example, use the galley and front salon circuits or whatever works best the way you use the coach.



If you wire the inverter into the whole coach, every time you turn the inverter on you must run around turning everything off that shouldn't get powered by the inverter - like the battery charger (duh! Smile, the water heater, and whatever else you have that you don't want running on battery power. Also, it takes very little to overload the inverter and require a reset when the whole coach is wired in.



In addition, I had to do just a bit of re-wiring to get the right stuff on the inverter circuits. Fortunately BB makes this fairly easy with all the junction boxes they used wiring the bus. Be sure to document the changes you make.



FWIW, your mileage may vary.

I need to follow from both gen and 30&50amp line in to to 50 amp breaker then to selector switch and finally to distribution circuit breaker box. I am thinking of adding a Magnum Energy MS series 2000 watt pure sine wave unit and need to review coach wiring. Any thoughts would also be appreciated.
