3 position Transfer Switch

I have an older class A RV, I was thinking about installing an inverter but wasn't exactly sure on the wiring.

To me the easiest way if it's even available would be to have a 3 position transfer switch. If I were to be plugged into shore power then that would run everything or vice a versa, if the generator or shore power was not on or plugged in then the inverter would run.

Not trying to power the AC.


Thank you,
Sean

    don't believe there is such a thing, Best to buy a inverter that has the TS built into it.taking a old MH and wiring in a Inverter that
    incorporates the existing system is a big job
