My plan was to run a extension cord from the inverter to the TV when needed, but while I have the converter open I'm looking at the 110 volt side thinking why not power-up the TV outlet (receptacle) from here.
I get a 2 switch box and 2 switches. Not sure what the switches are called but one is a wall light switch when there are more than one switch for the same lite, is it a 2 way switch? Anyway I pulled the black wire off the breaker for outlets and connect to one side of the switch and the black wire off the Black & Decker to the other side of switch and the feed of the switch back to the breaker. Now the power for all the outlets in the trailer are live from the 110v land line or the inverter. The other switch is a double trow that I connected one side to the white power and the other to the ground off the inverter. I'm not sure why but I believe in a house the white wire and the ground wire are the same but in the trailer they are not so had to keep them separated.
