Just bought a new 2018 Durango 292bht this summer and it surprisingly came with a 1200W inverter mounted in the pass thru storage area up front. I don't have a residantial fridge, the outside fridge doesn't run unless hooked to shore power so what could this inverter be powering? When I did a walk thru the lady didn't know either. Wonder if it's an oversight from the factory. I can turn it on and I see the AC wires coming from it and going up into the wall to what I assume to be the AC junction box. I've run into a road block. I asked the dealer to supply me with an electrical diagram of my specific model but who knows if i'll ever get one.

Your dealer "should" be able to help you. And they should be able to explain the equipment on your trailer. Try calling KZ directly if your dealer can't follow through for you.

Do you have a residential refer? Any other electronic items that need to run while traveling? With a inverter that size, then it's probably for the refer only.

I have a Durango 318RLT that also came with the inverter (surprise!!). My inverter powers the GFI in the bathroom, the outlet on our kitchen island and the TV in the living room. According the the inverter instructions, it has to supply a GFI circuit, so you can start with your bath or kitchen GFI and go from there.

The only need for an inverter in a travel trailer would be to power 120 volt loads when camping with no ac hookup. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out, turn off shore power, turn on the inverter and check to see what's hot. Use a meter or small lamp to check receptacles. My guess would be kitchen receptacle, microwave, tv etc. There aren't that many line voltage loads. It should be covered in the owners manual.
