Disconnect refrigerator

[med2055]

I have a 2022 Thor Challenger. I have tried to find disconnect for refrigerator when storing. On breakers off , still power. Only way is to disconnect battery, is this normal ?

Not normal. Should be a breaker. The installers may have used a inline fuse somewhere? It is not appropriate, but I have seen worse.

What type of refrigerator is it? Can you find where it's plugged in?

It is a residential style ..behind the unit is the plug in, not easily accessed

Can you attach a picture of your circuit breaker panel?

There are some inline fuses in the battery compartment..I may try to identify

Highly unlikely that a 120VAC residential fridge would have an inline fuse - it's most likely protected by a circuit breaker in the power panel, or a sub-panel somewhere.

Disconnects inverter. All breakers are off.

In post #4 he said it was a residential refrigerator...

Since it's new you should contact the dealer, etc. It sounds like it's not wired properly.
