12v sockets on dash powered by house or eng. battery

Or does shore power provide a trickle charge to the eng. battery? When NOT plugged into shore power, with a volt meter plugged into the dash outlets I get a reading around 12.6v. When plugged into shore power, the meter reads 13.6. When the USE/Stow switch is in Stow, meter reads 12.6v. When the eng. first starts and runs the meter reads 14.6v and then drops off slowly. From all the indications it appears that the eng. battery is getting a trickle charge from shore power.
Anyone have a wiring diagram to check this out? I have never had any battery discharge problems on my Vegas as has been mentioned here before.
Thanks
