I dont know if you getting the best advice here. You dont want to hard wire the inverter to the converter unless you have a transfer switch...
Being plugged into shore power and then flipping on the inverter breaker will be disastrous
So either transfer switch or how I did it was with a seperate outlet. I could only plug into one or the other...
Also as far as what breaker the charging circuit runs on you will need to determine..
on mine the charging breaker is by itself.
But my issue is the breaker for the reefer also has the bedroom outlets on it.. Since my reefer does not have a gas/electric switch and is all automatic with one button, I need to unplug the reefer if I want to run the bedroom outlets off the inverter.
So when I run on inverter power I simply go outside and unplug the reefer.
Other then that I turn all all other breakers as a safety precaution. A/C, HWH, Microwave.
Thats so no one turns them on. Reffer breaker stays on as stated above but is unplugged from outside.

Sorry that I mumble...lol
