I do like the set-up that GMC used, very simple and effective. But for me to implement that I either have to cut a large access hole in the side of my coach and put a lid over it or install the generator outlet under the dinette. Coachman just put a little 2.5x2.5" access for the 30 amp shore power cord. I don't think I could get me hand in even if I took out the little recessed cuby where the end of the shore power chord stays. the rear "dinette" is going to be covered by a large mattress, so crawling under it every time I need to switch that plug would be an inordinate amount of work.

So time, $$$ and effort all point me towards and automatic transfer-switch.

You could get rid of the transfer switch entirely??

Most gmc's do not have a transfer switch, the onan wires up to a female outlet, and you either plug coach into that outlet for generator use,

Or it plugs directly into shore power. Where the onan is now completly separate from coach wiring.

Transfer switch could be nice, but I personally dont think it is all that nessiary.

78 Royale, rear dinette
