Actually if it is newer the lights are 12VDC only.
This has nothing to do with whether the trailer is older or "newer", whatever that might mean. Travel trailer interior lighting is 12 vdc and always has been, the exception being some large park model units which are 120 vac, aren't equipped with a battery, and don't have any 12 vdc capability ... but that's not what the OP has so it's therefore irrelevant to this discussion. :R
Newer is a relative term, but years ago my parents had a late 60's or early 70's travel trailer that had both 12v and 120v bulbs in the same fixture. They had 2 switches on the fixtures. If you want to get technical, some even older trailers had gas lighting so it hasn't always been 12v.
