There are places in Mexico where the wiring is up to code. Usually this would be in industrial plants or maybe a big box store. Residential is a whole other story. There are a few CG's with proper electricity. The California ( now gone) in Maz had power pedestals with 50 amp service!! I would never plug into a 2 prong outlet!!!

Today's motorhomes are full of electronics. From slide controllers to Multiplex systems. Before connecting one of these to Mexican power one had better have lots of protection. John and Angela had the best idea. They had a battery charger and when in doubt would not plug the RV into power. Just the battery charger. Along with their solar power all was good. Older RV's are the answer for Mexico.
