Hi park_ridge_dave,
Congratulations on your new coach. Welcome to the Newmar Owners Forum. Finding the inverter is truly one of a Newmar Owner's "rite of passage". Do not feel alone. The location is unique by year model and sub model (floor plan). Look in the bays:
1. shore cord electrical compartment
2. any of the bays along bay dividing wall
3. any of the bays mounted on one of the raised rails (on the outside or inside the rail)
4. the ceiling of the any bay
It should be in the basement somewhere. Once you find it, determine where the breaker is located. For sure, on a dark and stormy night the inverter breaker will pop and need to be reset.
