I'm certainly no generator expert, but I seem to recall reading that nothing should be plugged in until after the generator is started. This is assuming the writer's generator is not built in.
I had the same question when I read the post. Whenever I've use my generator, I turn it on first, let it finish sputtering and get it running smooth (which usually only takes a couple seconds after starting), and THEN plug in the camper, same as plugging in with shore power. Get the "power" up first, then plug in.
See if that helps.
