After dealing with some battery problems I did some additional research on the AC/Inverter system on the 575 as delivered by the factory. The inverter on our boat is a Mastervolt MAXCombi charger with a 2.2KW inverter. The boat is wired for 110V via a Victron Autotansformer 32, which breaks the 220V AC power into 2 legs of 110V. After looking at the loads I had placed on the system, I found out the following:
I was overdue in doing this research, as it wasn't a problem before. This year, however, I added an icemaker to get the 5lb bags of ice out of the freezer drawer and that apparently kicked me over the line and made this a more pressing issue. I now know what I can run in combination and not in combination. Two lists: One when running on dock power or gen set, and one when inverting. Different limits. It seems simple enough, but you sometimes forget you are on a boat and assume the AC system can support almost anything. Not the case. FWIW
