You asking me that question is the equivalent of me just successfully telling Peyton Manning what type of cover 2 defense the other team is running, and then he says now what is my first read if we are in trips right
I think I know, but then a sucker is born every minute
I will tell you what I think anyway...
The way I see it is the circuit feeding 120vac to the Magnum xFer Switch is on different breaker than the one feeding 120vac to the Converter. So when I am connected to the 15amp shorepower, both are hot. When Converter is hot and RV Coach is in Use mode the Charging is on. It automatically controls the amperage to the batteries based on calculated voltage of House and Chassis batteries. At the same time since the circuit feeding Inverter is Hot too, it will stop the flow of current from the battery side of the Magnum xFer switch and send current needed to all the downstream devices on Inverter circuit.
The fact that I am pulling some load direct off the battery via the single available AC receptacle on the Magnum Inverter CSW 1012 is independent of whether the charger is on. If Charger is off, I will eventually drain the battery down. But if on, I do not believe the Magnum CSW 1012 Inverter will allow me to draw more than 8.3 amps. I would think (don't know for sure) that my converter could supply up to 8 amps? Oh oh, I think I may know what you may be getting at
Let's say that my TV and Fridge is drawing 6 amps, my charger might pull at least 6 amps to try to keep the batteries charged... if so when combined with my AC; it may exceed the 15 amps and trip that breaker!!!!
Now I am with no AC in very hot temps. Oh man!!! if I am right you making me shoot myself in the foot
