I have a question for the group? 2014 Itasca Meridian 40U. If the batteries are dead, will I still be able to use shore power?

Noticed on my new-to-me RV that the 50 A shore power cord is hard-wired into the Automatic Transfer switch. While that isn't a terrible idea, opening the black flappy door at the bottom of the storage locker/cargo box and feeding this massively thick and heavy cable through it for 15 feet or...

Hi All, I have a 2001 Fleetwood Southwind 32V and have an intermittent issue with shore power. Twice now, I've done something inside such as starting the microwave and instantly the shore power quits. My little current tester plugged in near where the shore power comes in to the RV changes and...

If my 30 amp Vita is plugged into a 20 amp circuit with an adapter what exactly gets powered by that? Does that current just go to charge the house batteries and the batteries power the lights and the 12v refrigerator? Or only powers the lights and refrigerator? Something else? Thanks.
