Doesn't appear normal, sounds like it is wired into gen output before transfer switch, otherwise would run on shorepower also. Check and make sure it is cutting on and off at proper pressures also.

I am not sure how to check if shutting on and off on proper pressures. It has seemed fine both parked hooked to shore power and in travel mode. I was just running the generator to exercise it, and notice the compressor coming on. If it was wired before the transfer switch would it work normally on shore power?
