Frame ground note FWIW: Some time ago I tested the wiring to my gen using a 80A load. The frame ground voltage drop was less than the 1/O copper cable voltage drop but not by much.
IE Steel certainly has higher resistance than copper but there is a lot more steel cross section area.
For a trailer to TV using frame grounds plus the frame to frame wire/connector should provide very acceptable voltage loss.
