If you install an inverter there isn't any need to plug the shore power into it. Since you have a 30A trailer its a little less complicated, Your going to run the shore power to the inverter and the inverter to the breaker panel. That way if you do plug into a generator it will have "pass through" for the 110 stuff. If your inverter is also a convertor Then you will also charge the batteries when plugged into the gen.

This is all predicated on purchase of an inverter/charger. I have installed numerous systems. How many watts is your solar?
