A little bit about Licensing.....
In another time and place we had a favorite saying, it applies here (and in many other places) as well.. From the old "mobile economy run" ratings on automobiles.
"Your Millage May Vary"
IN context it measns laws and licensing requirements may vary from state to state, city to city within the state, It may make a difference if the electrian is workign on your house, or in a factory where houses are built or where motorhomes/trailers are built... Many variables.
Factory OWNERS are very good at finding where they can build to take advantage of these differences in laws.. Now do not get me wrong, I'm not complaining about this, IF I were to build a factory.. I'd do the same thing. I mean why hire a 25 dollar an hour licensed union man when I can pay 15 to someone not licensed?
Of course it may affect their liability insurance cost in the long run.
But never assume the licensing requirements WHERE YOU PARK are the same as WHERE I PARK or where the RV was built... Unless you are parked at the factory.
