I have had one in the RV for over a dozen years and nobody has said anything, HOWEVER... I cheat.
I "Installed" it
IN the compartment where Damon hid my Transfer switch was enough room so I pulled the SHORE wires from the switch and repalced with a short (in my case) 50 amp pigtail.. this plugs into the autoformer at this time. More plans later
Then I plug the autoformer into an outlet that "Replaced" the transfer switch on teh shore line.. Outta Sight.. OUtta mind. Management never sees it, in fact neither do I unless I specifically look.
Future plan is to add a PI HW-50c post-autoformer.. For obvious reasons.
But so far my voltmeters have been... Nice.
