There have been MANY cases of licensed electricians who do not understand RV electrical service providing incorrectly wired outlets. (Note the word MANY.)
This results is lots of gear in a rig getting permanently zapped. The problem is associated in particular to rigs with 30 amp service.
Until you know for sure that an electrician is fully qualified to wire up an RV outlet don't let them start the job.
Actually, being fully qualified does not exempt the electrician from this very easy mistake to make.
You should test the voltage after he has finished and before you plug in your RV. 120 is good. 240 is BAD.
