Exercise genny while on shore power?
New to on board generators. Parked for the winter with 50 amp service, and it's time to exercise the genny. Do I have to disconnect first? 2006 Bounder, Onan 5500, ATS

To be absolutely sure nothing bad happens, I would unplug shore power first (or turn off breaker). I have an automatic transfer switch. One time I turned on the generator while plugged into shore power...don't remember if a load was on it, but I think not...and the situation burned my EMS that was plugged into shore receptacle.
