Leaving the iPad connected to the Power Adapter for extended periods will not harm the iPad. This mode of operation is common in kiosk applications.


You should note, however, that the battery must have some level of charge for the iPad to power-on and initially boot. Your description might suggest that your iPad battery is nearing the end of its service-life - and may critically fail at any time.
