I believe you will find that switch energizes a solenoid to interconnect the 2 battery systems. With my Winnebago ERA, it energized automatically to allow the alternator to provide charging current to the house batteries while driving. Because of this, it is common for the contacts to become...

Where are you plugged in? It sounds like you may have a center neutral wire loose at the supply service box. This can cause a 120 vac line "float" causing the voltage to go higher (toward 240 vac depending on loads and just how bad the connection is).
