I installed a Xantrex ProWatt 1000 and I installed 4 separate designated outlets direct from the inverter (2 in cabover and 2 in living area). They are brown outlets with brown covers. The shore power outlets in the RV are all white. When we are on inverter power we know to use the brown outlets. When we are on shore power we use the white outlets. Maybe more work than what most want to do but it works for me, and especially my wife as it makes things simple for her.
Question:
I'm going to get the Xantrex 1000, (for tV/player/DISH box) but it only has 2 plug outlets and I'm let to believe that the unit needs to be right near the battery due to cables.
What did you do to get 4 plugs and how did you run them from unit assumed in the battery area, to the 2 different locations. I can see like an extension cord, but are you wiring it behind the panels? or ?
Also, the color coding, if I had the "auto switch", would I need to worry about the color coding as the switch would change it from one to the other.

Thanks..
