Well, if you open every circuit breaker except your AC it would accomplish what you want assuming everything else is on 12 volt power.
It doesn't sound like this would work.
I'm going to have a DC to AC inverter hooked up to the panel so all the other AC appliances (microwave, TV, toaster, etc) and wall AC sockets (for cell phone chargers, hair dryer, etc) will be hot from the inverter being powered by the battery bank.
If my A/C breaker was off I wouldn't be able to use the A/C unit. I wan't to be able to use the A/C unit but have it run off of shore power while all my other devices (microwave, tv, toaster, phone chargers run off of solar via the inverter).
