Yes... Talking short distance... just a little more than the width of the RV to reach the wall - since it is positioned to 'receive' power from the house already...
Leaning towards using the L14-30R connection so it is compatible with my portable genny as well. But an interesting thought to use RV plugs/cable - going from hurricane use to Hurricane use...
Its an investment I hope I don't need to use often... But my portable genny has paid for itself many times over with the use it got in Michigan. Didn't have the option of having the RV at home there. Now that the RV is co-located with the house - and having had to make use of it once already - just preparing my options...
