I've been researching the process of installing an inverter into my 2013 Tracer 2700RES and I noticed that most installation videos tell you to turn off the converter while utilizing inverter power because theres no reason to charge the batteries from their own power.

I've check my breaker box and have no breakers for the converter as far as I can tell. How else would the converter function, and where should I look?

That is correct that you do not want to create a charging/inverting loop as it will just run your battery down fast.

Your converter is probably on one of the shared branch circuits that go to the various outlets. If you pull the cover off to see the 120v wires in the distribution panel you may see the connection. Otherwise you can monitor battery voltage as you turn off the breakers one at a time. Battery voltage will drop once the converter is powered off.

You can also wire the inverter into the panel so it does not power the converter.

Also you will want to set the fridge to propane only as it may also get powered by the inverter.

Just depends on how you connect the inverter.
