I'm in the process of fixing the issue caused by my leaky NoCold fridge.
By the time I arrive at a campsite the darn thing has lost its "cool" and it takes hours to build it back up.
I DON'T want to use propane to keep it powered on the road. Yes ... I know ... there are many who do, however it is not recommended, AND it would invalidate my insurance.
I'm accomplishing the task in two steps, or phases and I would REALLY APPRECIATE getting your thoughts.
Phase I is connecting up a separate circuit for the NoCold refrig as shown below:

Phase II replaces the NoCold with a residential unit and hardwiring the Inverter into the existing circuits:

Anything about this look "hinky?" Anything I'm missing??

Under this config I:
1) Shut down the Power Panel (before disconnecting from Shore Power)
2) Move the refrig plug to the Inverter-dedicated outlet
3) Then turn on the Inverter
4) drive away

Under Phase II:
1) Shut sown the Power Panel (before disconnecting from Shore Power)
2) For safety sake, flip converter breaker OFF
3) Turn on the Inverter
