our Palazzo and many other similar diesel pusher models with larger inverters typically DO have the Microwave outlet within the Inverter's sub-panel... so yes, you 'can' run the microwave, or anything plugged into ANY outlet within the coach, if you wish. Is it wise? Depends on the condition of the batteries, their current Voltage level, and how 'long' you are going to have it running. Making a quick 30second or so heating up of something is no problem, but a much longer run could easily run into a low voltage situation, where the Inverter will automatically cut itself OFF in order to save the batteries.

Microwaves are not 'wired' to an inverter, they simply plug into an outlet like most any other appliance does, but the outlet is typically right up in the same cabinet, or nearby, and sometimes the microwave is on it's own circuit.
