On a truck camper.....
I am installing a 3000 watt inverter charger, 400 watt solar panel, and 300 AH lithium battery. The exisiting transfer switch has the onan 2500 in the connection. I am getti ng rid of the generator because i wont need it with solar and the alternator charging. I will be keeping the 30 amp shore power wiring for emergency generator if needed. I can wire the 30 amp cord to the into the inverter/converter so it will go to the inv/conv instead of the tranfer switch. I will ber keeping the origianl microwave and adding a induction cooktop.
My questions......finally....
1. what triplex wire size do i need for 3000 watt inverter? 8/3?
2. Is the 15 amp breaker box enough for the truck camper AC system? Should i have 15 amp breakers for the main AC line and one separate for the microwave?
3. Can I use the existing transfer switch or does the inverter/converter take over and I can delete the existing transfer switch?
Thanks for your help. Let the Experience and knowedge poor in.....!
