Electrician says Motor Homes want 220v
I had a 30 amp outlet installed at my garage for our 30 amp RV. My friend and electrician did a good job and used 110. Now have a neighbor being told MHs' outlets should be 220v. States he's done...

What voltage for a motor home?
Everything (With one possible exception) in a Standard order Motor home is 120 volt
30 amp service is 120 volt
Many have hired an electrician. he looked at the outlet, did not read the MAXIMUM 125 VOLTS printed on it and fried the RV's electronics.
50 Amp service is identical to house servce save for the size
120/240 volt.. (240 divided) each let to Neutral is 120 volts and that is what the appliancs and such use
The excption is an Intelletec Energery Manager if it sees 240 volts it goes to sleep since you are on 50 amps.
COnfusiong.. Not really.
3-Wires 120 volt hot, neutral and the odd shaped one is safety ground
4 Wires Hot, Neutral, Hot and the odd shaped one is safety ground.
Two hot
