Looking for some help and or validation in ways to deploy the Multiplus-II in a 50A RV Toyhauler that has the Onan QG 5500 on board. Unfortunately, the Onan outputs two 120V legs in a single phase, which is no bueno with the Multiplus-II as it will see the single phase and drop L2 from the genset in that scenario leaving me hamstrung with half of the generator potential output. I want full use use of the ~46A output of the generator (run all 3 A/C's, etc). I was thinking I could remove the ATS and instead run the shore line directly to the Multiplus-II. Then install a manual switch (Blue Sea #9093?) on the output side between the Multiplus-II and the 50A panel, connect the generator output to the other side of that manual switch. This has the generator completely bypass the Multiplus-II and should let the Multiplus-II power the whole 50A panel and also provide the ability to run the generator when needed utilizing the full ~46A. Does this route make (electrical) sense? I was thinking I could also leave the existing 60A converter in place as well which will boost the charging potential to the (4) 100Ah BB's as well as ensure I can charge off of the generator if no solar is happening. Thoughts? If a sound design, is the Blue Sea #9093 the correct switch? Kinda sucks having to manually throw a switch... but seems like it is the only option to provide the best of both worlds. Am I missing anything.
