I am talking about the direct connection from main box to the utility transformer as asked.
You will see three wires come into your main box. Two hot and the neutral.
Earth ground is created at the main panel and bonded to neutral.
Utility transformer may have its own earth ground but I have no real idea.
I’m not sure that “direct connect” means that much. My pool filter pump has a “direct connect” from our panel box to the pump. It is only 3 wires and two are hot to give it 220 volts! I have a hard time believing that the third wire to a pump connected to the swimming pool isn’t ground!
Look, do what you want, it is your RV, just make sure you use a volt meter to check the voltages from each hot leg to neutral. If you don’t know what I mean by that, call an electrician!
