We just completed a 6 day trip and not once did I pull the shorepower card out. I only have a 1000 watt inverter and until last week, I had never tripped the breaker on the inverter. Still not sure how or why it tripped? But it was related to me manually turning off my generator at the time. I had 2 TVs on, the 12vdc power to the Norcold fridge, and maybe a few lights. I usually never see the inverter over 420 watts based on running all of the TVs.
Best guess is when the inverter is working the ATR is in shore power mode . After the generator starts, the ATR waits 60 to 90 seconds the flips to generator power. The inverter sees this power spike and trips to the voltage spike. My inverter does the same when the inverter is working and I plug into shore power I usually get a E03 . I just trip the 15 amp 120 volt CB in the power center and the 200 amp CB in the house battery compartment, then reset the 200 and then the 15 amp CBs and all is well.
