John,
The converter shut-off switch has been an option for years and probably even standard on many models (it was factory on my 94 Excella). It used to be because of the hum of the older univolts would keep light sleepers awake. With the new solid-state switch mode converters, the fan will occasionally run in warmer climates at night but should be minimal. The other reason is if you have an inverter installed, you can shut off the converter to prevent them from competing.
