Add an outlet to inverter

[Paul Cartland]

I want to add an outlet above my cabinets that runs on the inverter or shore power to power my Starlink. The location is directly above the breaker panel. Where is the best/easiest place to connect to AC? Not all of the outlets appear to be connected to the inverter.

Thanks

You’ll need to find the circuit that is powered by the inverter.

The nolug from shore power, remove the breaker panel cover. Turn on the inverter and using a volt meter, find the correct circuit breaker.

After that, you have a couple of options:

Remove the entire breaker panel and trace the Romex from the breaker to the inverted outlets. You could “daisy chain” from the nearest outlet, or install a junction box and tie in there.

Make sure you use the correct gauge Romex and do all wiring with everything turned OFF.
