So we are the proud owners of a brand new 358MPQ. "Pre-wired" for solar. Looks like I thought that meant much more than KZ does. My thinking said the 110 outlets all run through the inverter (due to solar prep). Doesn't seem to be the case. I'm told only the fridge runs from the inverter. So the question is this - can at least one of the bedroom outlets be run from the inverter? Optimally all the outlets but that might be asking too much from the stock inverter. Would I actually have to install a distribution box after the inverter and make 2 circuits - one for the fridge and one for the bedroom outlet?

According to the installation book for My factory installed inverter it is supposed to be connected to GFCI circuit. Mine seems to be wired that way. Also, typically inverters are wired to limited number of outlets to control the load (mine is connected to the bathroom and one kitchen outlet). You could probably rearrange the wiring & tie it into a GFCI so the BR had inverter power, but remember to be aware of how much power you are drawing.

On my 2021 (really a 2020) 382, the inverter only powers the kitchen plugs on the island and the bathroom. The gas/electric fridge does not work with my inverter.

I forgot to update this thread. We discovered that, despite KZ engineers insistence that only the fridge was wired into the inverter, that the entire kitchen slide , with the exception of the microwave and fireplace, was wired into the inverter circuit. Must have been a decision made on the floor when assembling the unit.

I was told the same - only the fridge ran off the converter. I also found out the same that the TV and 3-4 other plugs also run off the inverter.
