Can you have your tow vehicle 7 prong plug connected to the vehicle and have the shore power connected to main shore power at the same time without having any issues?

Yes. The beauty of DC is that there aren't any phasing issues to worry about like AC. So, both the tow vehicle and the power converter will be powering the camper without problems. In fact the power converter will 'see' the other source and adjust accordingly.



Now this would be problematic if the scenario were different - using AC. For instance you wouldn't want to use the 120V system from two sources (say a pedestal and a genny) simultaneously. That would cause problems.

Thanks. Just wanted to make sure I didn't cause myself any electrical meltdowns or something.
