32+2 Shore/Off/Gen Switch
The main breaker on the panel turns turns the AC power on and off. So what is the Shore / Off / Gen Switch used for? Is it also intended to shut the AC power off in the Off position??

On my 31 TE, that switch only selects power for the air conditioning in my pilot house. I have (2) 30 amp shore power connectors. One for the Main panel, and the second just for that air conditioning.

Re: 32+2 Shore/Off/Gen Switch
Hi Priceless. Depending on how your panel is set up the "Shore/Off/Gen" switch chooses the source of AC power. On our 35TE with 2 30amp shorepower inlets I flip each switch to "ON" when connected to shorepower. On generator I flip one to "Generator" and the second one to "Both". If you can post a picture I can probably tell you how yours works.
Are you located in Old Saybrook? I'm right up the river in Essex.
