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...

I haven't used the term "110" or "220" for many decades. Curiosity overwhelms me, are there any licensed electricians here on this forum that do not use 120 - 240 - 480 - 600 volts?
Personally I have been using the outmoded numbers when spoken to be a warning signal about the speaker's authenticity.
Same down here, only it's 127 and 254. NOM Standards

It's a lot like the 150/1500 series pickups are still referred to as 1/2 ton trucks when most can carry upwards of 1 ton. Technically, they are not but everyone knows what is meant by the term.
I used to work with a group of master electricians and unless specifically questioning the measured voltage, 110 or 120 (and sometimes 115) were used interchangeably.
Questioning the difference when not critical to the discussion is just being pedantic.
