I have a 46-qt AC/DC EdgeStar, soon to make its home in my Jeep. Normally, it will live off 12VDC current from my house battery through its DC power cord. It also has a 120VAC cord which I would like to leave plugged in to a 120VAC receptacle in my dual current Load Center.
The only ways that 120VAC cord would become "hot" is if I turn on my inverter w/o unplugging the refer's DC cord, or when I'm plugged in to 120VAC shore power.
Both current receptacles will have circuit breakers between the power and the EdgeStar.
My question is whether the EdgeStar is smart enough to know when different currents are coming in, and does it prioritize one and block the other by opening its circuit? IOW, is leaving both cords plugged in to the refer safe?
