Generator power
Is there a switch to get generator power from the generator to the unit? 2013 Keystone Raptor..
Forum Discussion
- Look at your generator, does it have a plug on it that is the female match to the one on the power cord that the trailer uses?
On many, as a safety feature you plug the unit into the genny for power as a means of avoiding someone accidentally connecting to both the genny and an outside source at the same time. - Methods of generator power
RV power cord plugs into an 'outlet' that is wired to generator output
Generator power cord plugs into RV power receptacle
Gen/Shore power are wired to 'Auto Transfer Switch' ---output goes to RV Main Power panel
(Start gen and transfer switch swaps to Gen power ---default source) - Keystone Raptor should have come factory with a transfer switch.

Our 2005 had a transfer switch. But I did have issues with it sticking too.- Is it a built-in generator like an Onan? Our Onan has double breakers on the generator that connect the generator output to the trailer.
- Figured it out, bad breaker...Thanks everyone for the help!
