I am guessing you have a Magnetek 6300 Power distribution panel/COnverter...
WHY? Well this converter is kind of unique, it contained both a very slow DUMB type battery charger and a very poor "Converter" for lights and things that did not need "Clean" DC.. A relay (which may have failed) selected BATTERY or CONVERTER supply for the lights. Either the Relay or the high current converter has failed, so you only get lights when the battery is selected.
