- larry_cadExplorer IIKeep in mind that the water pump runs on electricity. Water and electricity are intimately close to each other. Having said that, I wonder if the tech at the factory is proud of that wiring and plumbing job. Typical factory work.
- GDS-3950BHExplorerDon't look at the rats nest behind the converter, you might stroke out if you do. Why worry, don't you have an RVIA seal telling you how all plumbing, HVAC, and electrical along with fire safety is up to snuff? It is because they said so. What is the copper line? Propane?
- rlw999ExplorerThat pump doesn't look too bad, it's screwed in place so it's not going anywhere.
More concerning is that black controller box that doesn't look like it's mounted to anything at all so it's free to flop around, supported only by the wires.
And it's hard to tell from the picture if those terminals that plug into it are covered by clear plastic or if they are bare. But if they are bare, I'd put some electrical tape over them. - joerg68Nomad IIIThe water pump doesn't concern me. But overall it doesn't look very orderly at all.
The way the jack controller rests loosely on some balled up wires doesn't look very reassuring.
What camper is that? - Looks like all 12 volts. No big deal.
Take a shower in my Uncle's basement and you will really wonder what is safe. Shower head is about 18" from the main electric panel and the soap dish is right next to it. You could throw the main breaker while you wash your hair. Been that way 50 years and nobody seems to think much of it. - Reality_CheckNomad II

Cool just making sure this is normal , it seems counterintuitive to put electrical components next to water
lol, then don't ever look in a ditch at the way half the world's utilities are run...
Seriously, you've got plumbing and electrical running next to each other, over each other, around each other all over your house. Out of sight, out of mind. - moonlitsoulsExplorer
