So much bad karma about stab lock receptacles used in MHs.
When installed properly they will maintain a tight connection longer than screw down receptacles. Check any screw down after 6-8 years and they will be loose because of the copper crushing.
The stab locks in my 95 Bounder are all original and do not heat when using the microwave, coffer maker, PD9180 converter, or the 1500 watt heater.

Very interesting. Why do you think The NEC chooses screw down over Stab locks. Enquiring minds want to know.
Which stab locks do you are you referencing?
The stab locks used in RVs or the stab locks used in sticks and bricks?
They are different.
Can you show us the code where the NEC chose the screw downs.
Also do you know the NEC is a NON Governmental entity and has NO punitive powers. The NECs suggestions must be adopted by others to be put in place.
