Is a Transfer Switch Needed with Inverter and Mini-Split
Question:
I have a 2005 23foot Turtle Top conversion bus with a Pioneer 9000w mini split. I am going to have a 2000w pure sine wave inverter hook up to a 4x 6v 200Ah each battery bank to provide 12V 400Ah charged by a 1000w solar panels. Do in need to install a separate Go Power! TS-30 30 Amp Automatic Transfer Switchinch so when the shore power is hooked up, the inverter will be disconnected from the battery bank?

Helpful Expert Reply:
If I am following correctly, you are installing a 115V AC mini-split AC unit and intend to operate it from battery bank when not connected shore power. You are concerned if you will need to isolate your Progressive Dynamics RV Power Control Center with AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger - 75 Amp
Item # PD4575K18LS8 from the battery bank when not on shore power. The answer no, it is not needed to do providing you have all other items properly connected. I do suggest however that you have ability to move the power demands easily from the inverter to an AC outlet from the Progressive Dynamics, # PD4575K18LS8 when on shore power.
I have linked a few help articles that you may find informative. Happy Camping!
