All appliances should be turned off when plugging in because there will be a small arc if there's a load present and the power is on. Over time, this can damage the plug.

FWIW Turning off A/C and other high loads should be done before using shore to gen transfer switches or starting gen. or turning gen. off with auto transfer relays. The arcing across the contacts have destroyed both and neither one are cheep.
