The cable between the battery disconnected relay and the power center is usually a 6 awg and has a 50 amp CB. You would never want a long term current draw of more the 20% of the deep cycle lead acid house battery's amp-h capacity. Most RV manufactures the power center's 12 volt capability to 50 amps. I would guess the Winny does the same.
Makes sense and consistent with what I am seeing, but how does the Coach Battery ON/OFF switch turn OFF the Inverter given the source positive Inverter cable is direct on the House Batteries?

Further complicating if Inverter is direct to House Battery, why would turning House Switch to OFF & Disconnecting Chassis battery at the same time shut the power to Inverter?
