Sure, you can usually check the battery voltage by hooking the VOM to the fuse panel battery leads...but being a battery Biz guy, I always like to start at the 'source' - it gives you a chance to make sure the battery cable connections are in good shape, free of any corrosion that may offer resistance to proper performance, etc...
If there's any issue with battery lead corrosion, you must clean the terminals and cable connections first, to insure your standby power source is in good condition...IMHO
Another thought...In our older AS, the AC circuit breaker that powers the converter receptacle is a GFI type - it also powers the outside receptacle as well as the receptacle in the bath...anyway, our older GFI breaker, when tripped and reset, LOOKS likes it set, but isn't, and I have to reset it several times to get it to CONNECT properly - got to replace it sometime...just something else to check and eliminate as a potential problem...
