12v Iceco JP40 refrigerator and 12v socket

[Darren]

What DC voltage do you get from the battery at the fridge?
My fridge needs 12.6 or more to work. Anything less and it won’t run.
12.8 is fully charged.
Also is the wire thick enough? If it’s too thin it wont carry enough power.
What voltage do you get at the fridge when you turn it on? Does it drop a lot?

All fridges pull 4 to 5 times power to start than when running and will not run without a good solar systems to keep the voltage high. I agree with Darren you need 12.6 volts or more because the fridge will drop the voltage on start up to just over 12 volts and usually stop working at 11.9 volts.
