Absolutely you can turn it on ...but as Dick indicates, it won't really come "on" but will go to standby status because the generator is already providing 110v power. Normally the inverter "on" light will blink slowly to indicate stand-by status. When the generator is shut down, it will very rapidly kick in and keep everything going. If you are very observant, you may notice the very quick pulsation of any lights you have on. It will do the same between shore power and inverter. We normally keep our inverter on during the transitions because it keeps the wife happier not to have to reset clocks, etc
To my knowledge, we have never had anything damaged by the change-over.
