This would also happen with a built-in generator since it's already bonded. I don't see how this could happen unless there's a faulty device plugged into the RV or generator, sitting outside and making an earth ground. An unbonded generator supplies an extra level of protection from a situation like this. On the other hand it masks detection of the fault.
The question then is does running a neutral ground plug cause a possible danger for a hot skin issue where the danger might not have existed without the plug?
