The RV has two power systems, 12 volt dc and 120 volt ac. Most things operate on the 12v system. Other things, the AC, microwave and ac outlets require 120vac either from shore power or the generator. Some require propane or 120vac, refrig and possibly water heater.
Your AC outlets will not work on 12v unless you have a big inverter which requires a big battery bank.
No one has suggested that you read The 12v side of life. This may help to clear up some of the mystery in the RV power systems.
