You have a "hot skin" condition caused by a partial short known as a current draw coming from the hot side of the 110 leg and entering the chassis thru a ground/chassis.
Could be a simple as a pinched piece of romex..some thing that got smashed or a screw tightened too tight. Turn the breakers off at the converter and test again with a meter...not your hands. If the skins still hot with inside brkrs off, then its between the shore chord and the converter...actually it could even be at the converter, if its not hot, turn on the brkrs one at a time till it is, then go to the outlets one at a time in that circuit to see if a wire has come off an outlet and is touching the ground wire.
Be safe...your no good to yourself dead.
