This is a common problem for novices.
1. You have POWER to the AC units and other certain 120 appliances
2. BUT ONLY the Inverter when ON supplies 120 power to various plugs and the TV's and Microwave
3. Turn the Inverter OFF and you lose power to those items.
4. IF you have 120 power to the INPUT side of the Inverter. YOUR INVERTER TRANSFER SWITCH IS BAD.
5. What confuses novices is, they SEE the M/W powered up and the TV's and some outlets have power. They do not realize that the Inverter when ON is supplying the power. They assume they have Shore/Gen supply problems. Doug
