    It appears that the "Opt Inverter" circuit breaker would be the one to feed a automatic transfer switch as one input and an inverter output as the other input and then the ATS would maybe feed to GFCI and Inverter outlets via a sub panel.

    The CB looks like a Siemens QT 20-Amp 2-Pole Tandem Circuit Breaker, Model #Q2020

    According to the Regional Service Manager at GD there is no Sub Panel. So it could be that circuit breaker are they made in china?

    Not on my Reflection. The GFI on the island and on both bathroom walls have GFI markings but both outlets in my pass through, outside kitchen, outside on the side of the rig and behind my theater seats which are also on that same circuit do not have any markings. I learned what was on the GFI breaker when I needed to turn off the theater seats because I couldn't tell when the heat was on or off. I've since put in a remote on/off outlet switch for it but I was surprised to learn how many outlets were on that one 15A breaker labeled GFI.

    Our 2020 Solitude 310GK-R with factory solar does indeed have a "sub-panel" in the form of a second surface-mount metal breaker box with three breakers in it. It's mounted on the inside of the buffet to the left of the main power panel. It is supplied by the inverter when the ATS puts the inverter on-line and powers the residential refrigerator and most outlets - including several of the GFCI outlets. It does not power the microwave/convection oven, the electric fireplace, washer/dryer, nor the ACs.

    I have had a popup, and this is my third 5th wheel and have never had this type of issue. Cant get it in anywhere for repairs before I am heading to Texas in 2 weeks so I guess I will take it as is and use extension cords. I sincerely appreciate all the help maybe someone with a 320G will pipe in with some info. But keep the suggestion coming I am learning a lot.

    Have you checked before each circuit breaker for power?

    Redapple63 I haven't done that yet not sure if I have all the skills for that. Shocked myself pretty good in England on 220 volts threw me across the room lol.

It was the GFI in the bathroom will not reset no matter what and has no voltage tested with a meter. All circuit breakers are in and all fuses look good. Removed all power from trailer and reset all breakers. 110 works in all outlets but nothing on the GFI side. Spoke with Grand design and they are working the issue. Spoke with lazydays and they said that it could be the the Inverter. If the inverter was bad I don't think I would have any 110 at all or should I. Lazydays said check breakers on Inverter there isn't any I can find just on and off button. Is it possible to see a wiring diagram for the GFI circuit somewhere? I hope someone can help still under warranty but have a trip planned in two weeks to Texas. GD said they can send a GFI outlet but I don't think it is the outlet but something down stream. Any advice would be great.
    It would probably be smart to pull the plugs on anything that is pluger into the GFCI circuit
