Forward electrical outlet in passenger side basement compartment

I put a small refrigerator in the very front basement compartment on the passenger side and noted that while on inverted power it does not seem to be powered it only works on shore power. I have a 2017 Dutch Star, curious if anyone else with that rig could confirm if that outlet has inverted power in addition to shore power. Thanks in advance

It does not run off the inverter on mine, because Newmar assumes that the fridge installed there would be an AC/DC unit.

Why don't you get a ~$5 outlet tester, plug it into the outlet, turn off pedestal power and generator and turn on the inverter? See what happens.Click image for larger version

My friend I travel with has the same coach that you have, he states that recept you are referring to is not powered by the inverter. Just shore power and gen set.

Is its the refer prep from Newmar, the outlet does not run on the inverter. As other have said, the Dometic refer option will run off 12V when not on shore or genny power. You may need to get back the the AC outlet in the bay in front of the peg board bay.
