On a power pedestal, I kill the breaker prior to plugging in, then power it up. Not sure I like the idea of plugging in shoreline to "hot" outlet.
Just turn off the main breaker in your rig and there'll be no load on the circuit when you plug into any source, be it shore power, generator, or even an inverter. No way I'd plug into a genset and then start it up - no telling what the waveform looks like before the genset has stabilized. :E Reverse the process when disconnecting - first remove the load by shutting off the rig's main breaker, then disconnect from the genset, then shut the genset down. If this doesn't appeal to you then build yourself a separate breaker box that the rig plugs into and which in turn then plugs into the genset - or shore power, or inverter - whatever the source may be at the time. :)
