I have a question pertaining to installing an inverter in my trailer to run just the fridge while traveling down the highway. I have purchased a 1000w Cobra inverter with remote, a 32a 3 position change over switch to be used as a manual transfer switch and a 150a fuse to be used between the battery and inverter. My question is this, going from the inverter to the switch, do I hardwire the 110v side of the inverter to the switch or can I use a plug, which the inverter has 2 110v outlets, to plug into one of those and wire that to the switch. I have uploaded a diagram of the setup as I intend to wire it.

I also have a question about wiring my switch I bought. It has 4 connections on each side, is a 3 position switch and I am not really 100% sure how to wire it up. I know the inputs go on the opposite sides but not really sure how to wire the refrigerator connection. I have added pics of the switch. Any help will be appreciated.
