Keystone Hideout Inverter Prep

I have installed an inverter and everything worked just great except that the wire that I connected to (the one that was sticking out of the wall under the inverter prep cover) powers the microwave not the outlets. Any thoughts?

If I was to guess, I would say the factory switch a couple of circuits at the breaker panel. With a multimeter and some safety it should be simple to figure out.

Are you saying the breaker that is labeled "AC" is the one that controls the circuit OR that the wire you cut/wired the inverter actually is to the outlet for the AC?

The wire I cut that was factory prepped to be the outlets is actually the Microwave. I am thinking that they pulled the wrong wire through the wall (wood panel in storage area) and the outlet prep is still behind the wall. Haven't checked behind yet as I not prepared to remove the wood panel just yet.

A simple check with a meter is all you need.

UNPLUG from shore power, remove breaker panel cover. Continuity on the black wire at the panel and outlet will tell you. If they are switched, just switch them back.
