Best advice I've seen in this thread. I do not trust colors in RV's cause they are wired by ELECTRICIANS not AUTOMOTIVE technicians or Electronic Technicians (I'm cross trained so I know both Traditions but THERE IS NO STANDARD!!!)
I agree except that they are wired by folks that have no electricity in their own homes. :)
Most of them do have electricity at home, and it is more similar to RV wiring than conventional wiring. 12V systems with solar or wind are very common among the Amish. I installed or helped with several systems based on cheap automotive headlight bulbs before LEDs became an option. They did a good job wiring, but didn’t get the idea about voltage drop so tended to overload circuits and get dim lights.
