When you start the generator, the ATS will switch off shore power automatically and apply generator power to the main circuit breaker(s) after a small delay to let the generator's frequency to stabilize. When you stop the generator, the shore power will automatically applied. That said, you should never switch power sources when there is a heavy load on the system (A/Cs). Lights, charger and TVs are ok.
