2021 3231Ck Legacy with In-Command. Does it have load shedding? Plug behind basement wall loses power when Microwave is operated. Thanks

If it has the Precision Circuits Central Monitor Panel in the control panel, yes. It will show you the order of load shedding and what loads are shed when microwave cases it to shed.

The order on my unit is:
Water heater
AC3
Vacuum
AC2
Fireplace
AC1
Microwave

The basement outlet may be on the same circuit as the vacuum. You can test by opening the breaker labeled Vacuum. That's #6 in my unit.

Behind the basement wall on the right side mounted to the ceiling (floor) in front of the stairs is a "Power Sharing Switch".
When the primary device is running (in your case, the microwave) the secondary device is shut off (your vacuum?).

Thanks for all the input. I grabbed power from the vacuum outlet to power electronics cabinet. Only problem is when microwave is used, I lose power. May disable power sharing switch and just never vac and microwave at same time.
