That is a vacuum breaker/check valve for the black tank flusher, the manufacturer states that they can expel water and are to be installed where that water will do no damage. RV manufacturer’s cannot read and put them wherever it is convenient for them. Some folks replace with a higher quality one, but I just simply eliminated the stupid thing and made sure there is a check valve in the inlet. We can expect others to point out the error of my ways.
Where the water will do no damage? Right over two 120 volt junction boxes!! SMH!
Yeah, mine was directly above the twist lock electrical inlet, (you know, the one with the wires completely loose), and right next to my silverware drawer.
