If you are simply turning the A/C on or off, not much difference, but if you are "Hot Switching" it, that, in this context, is switching from one power source to another, Some very strange things can happen that will cause the contacts to arc over on the transfer switch and damage the contactors (Relay, Solenoid, Contactor, three names depending on the size of the contacts, at 50 amps, Contactor applies if the coil is AC)
THe relay in the A/C, never does this, EVER, it can not, since it is on/off only, not on/on
