Whatever the official name of the "salesman switch" is it doesn't completely disconnect the house battery from all of the loads. Mine disconnects some common loads like lights but not the refer and not other safety items.
Maybe it should be called "Battery Draw Reduction Disconnect Switch".
Even my 2 Monaco installed Battery Disconnect Switches (real mechanical switches) don't disconnect all loads from each battery bank. But the Battery Disconnect Switches I installed do indeed completely disconnect the batteries from all loads.
Correct terminology or not "Salesman Switch" uniquely identifies the small switch by the door that activates the latching solenoid near the batteries that disconnects some loads.
Salesman Switch
COMMON nomenclature used by MANY folks
Some folks just love to appear superior by denigrating others
And some folks just try to help the newbies learn a language they are new to and know nothing about.
