I suspect the poster assumed it would run with engine on and generator off.

Hello,

I have a relatively new NT-34 and the A/C does not work with the engine
running. However, it works with the generator on and engine off. Is that
normal?

Rick

Is your A/C a12 volt system? I doubt it. It needs 120 volts, either from dock power cord or from your generator.

In checking, A/C is on 120 Volt side. I should add that the engine shuts off when I turn on generator to run A/C.

Engine and generator are independent. Both work to run their respective units.
