1993 440 aft cabin inverter location

Postby Scubabubbles » June 27th, 2025, 8:38 am

Hello everyone!

Can anyone tell me where i can find the stock 600w inverter? I don't see a breaker for it on the panel so i'm not even sure there's one installed.

thanks!

Since I’ve never had an inverter, I’m no expert, but I’m guessing you would have to have some kind of breaker or transfer switch if you had one. Are you able to run any kind of 120v light or appliance when not hooked to shore power or running your genset? Probably not. Why do you think you have one and if you did, 600 watt isn’t very big

If carver had installed it theinverter breaker in the electrical panel will have one there. The oem inverter on my 405 was by the electrical panel underthe dinette. The only thing it was installed for was for the "home style audio equipment " 600watts isn't much. So if you don't have that oem audio that's another chance you probable don't have one. I've since moved on with removing that puny inverter and installed another and for other things in the boat.

I don't remember which model it was, but recall someone having an OEM inverter behind a panel behind their TV in the salon.

That sounds reasonable. It could be dedicated only to the TV with no breaker or transfer switch. TV runs off 12v power only.
