Is it possible to add a switch to the generator to allow me to switch from the center tap 240V to a full wattage 120V in order to run my 15K AC unit on my 5th wheel.
Yes, and an excellent wiring diagram for the switch set-up is two messages back. The trick is finding a four pole - double throw switch rated at the desired 20 or 25 amps. This type of switch is not common. An alternate approach would be two DPDT (two pole - double throw) switches but the switch handles should be tied together for safety reasons. Other than that, using two switches would not hurt the generator. DPDT switches in the 20-25 amp range are common.
