People never give the residential house breaker panel second thought unless renovating and older home, they don't move the stick and brick around they are not subject to changes of location and power
But people move their RV, and then come here and ask questions and are surprised by the answers
You and I know the old std is 3600 kva and the new one is 12000 kva
Big difference
Buyers are not really informed of the differences, or the relationship of use
And that is the failure of the RV industry
You are IN the service part, not the MFG part
I am not in the industry at all
Let's just agree to disagree, and you can quit trying to defend the industry short comings
Well, I USED to be a assbly line worker years ago. I have been a Tech for 35 years. I do not see how it is the RV industry that has to explain the why's and do's and don'ts of 30 or 50 amp service as it relates to having a 30 or 50 amp service installed. THAT is not the business of the RV business, but the business of Local Electricians. I guess I am looked on as defending the RV business, BECAUSE, I DO KNOW what I am talking about and when nonsense is posted, I point it out. The whole point of this thread boils down to LOCAL contractors that have no knowledge of what they are doing. The OWNERS manuals of most RV's explain some of the detail of 30 and 50 amp service, but do not get into the nitty gritty, which the RV'er does not need to know and can readily find the info thru the internet.
