Transfer switch would be where the genset and shore power cables come together in one of the junction boxes.
I am guessing that you have an on-board genset.
Remember that you should not have the shore power connected at the same time as the genset is running.
I would shut off the inverter and even turn the breaker off to it before doing much trouble shooting.
Power should come into the transfer switch and then automatically supply power to the rig with no buzzing.
Running on the genset the automatic transfer switch should pick up the power from the genset and then supply power to the rig.
Mant inverters, makes 120 AC volts from 12 volts DC, have what is called feed through in which when 120 volts AC is present it sends that power whether it is shore power or genset straight through. When no 120 volts AC is present the inverter takes the 12 volts DC and makes 120 volts AC.
Would you locate your "inverter" and post make and model? Many get confused whether it is an "inverter" or whether they have a "converter". A converter takes 120 volts AC and makes 12 volts DC.
