Main power switch

If I turn off the whole house power switch on my 29mv is the house battery still being charged if connected to shore line?

It is on my 2015 Greyhawk FK. An easy way to check is put a meter on the battery with it plugged in and if the voltage reads over 12.5 volts it is being charged.

Tried like you mentioned. The voltage was 13.5 with switch on or off while on shore power and dropped to 12.3 when off shore power. Thanks for response.

In my 2017 29mv, the house battery is being charged anytime it is connected to shore power, regardless if the main power switch is on or off.

That is a rather large drop, when you disconnect the Shore Power. What do you have running off the battery when you disconnect the Shore Power. Residential fridge?
