I have not been able to get schematics or wiring diagrams on where the "load shedding" is connected from Thor. "They are unable to get them."

The only thing I might add is that on "startup" the AC amps can be quite a bit higher when compressor kicks in. Could be that the load shedding device only works when using inverter and not really sure? Great information!
