<p>[QUOTE="loudtom, post: 12290323, member: 186442"]Yes, from your power source into that box with the GFCI under the bunk. You can cut an extension cord and buy a male end from Home Depot to create a double male plug. The important thing is that you only have one power source on that circuit. I disconnected or cut the shore power so it will never be able to be on that circuit. What I do instead is remove the double male from the inverter and plug an extension cord from shore power into that. I also have an extension cord run to my generator, so I can run the double male plug into that cord to get generator power. This is also why I accidentally plugged the double male from generator into inverter and it fried the inverter once.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don't know enough about how traditional APUs work, but if they provide 110-120V AC, then you have to isolate it from your inverter. If the inverter is being fed 12V DC from the APU, then you shouldn't have to do anything with it. The important thing is that you do not mix two separate 120V inputs on the same circuit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
