I would install Surge Guard like:
- Generator - Switch - Surge Guard - Trailer.
- Shore Power - Switch - Surge Guard - Trailer.
If one has dollars to buy 2 x Surge Guards, then:
- Generator - Surge Guard - Switch - Trailer.
- Short Power - Surge Guard - Switch - Trailer.
In a perfect world and dollars wasn't an issue, Surge Protection "at source" - before it goes into the switch. And if one wants to be double protected, install 50 Amp Surge Protection within Trailer's Main Panel as well. re: Something like: - Click Here - Main Panel surge protection protects from "inside" surges as well. For example, back feed from AC unit or Coffee Pot type surges.
