This forum won't let me upload photos directly, if you'll have a look at the post I linked in the OP then you'll see original photos, I've also made a new post showing the outlets in question.

Something else to consider, the combo 120V/12V panels have TWO completely electrically isolated sections.
120V is treated one way and 12V is treated as "low voltage" and deos not require things like having electrical connections in a work box or even clamps to clamp the wires.
Some of your complaints may have come from seeing wires entering the 12V section which will not have any wire clamps, no buffering of the openings and will have individual wires entering/exiting which is 100% the polar opposite of 120V wiring.
You made serious allegations of having breaker 3x the ratings which I find to be impossible and would be more expensive for the manufacturer to have done.. 3 times the rating would mean for 30A service they would have a 90A single pole breaker and for a 50A service a 150A two pole breaker.. Price those breakers.. They are not cheap..
Heck even standard outlet wiring 14 ga wire would have to have 45A single and 12 ga wire would have to be 60 singles..
None of the breaker sizes you claim to have found would be commonly found in any electrical supply warehouse let alone in a RV builders inventory.
***Link Removed*** is a catalog of Murray breakers which would possibly fit in the RV electrical panels..
I am not saying mistakes can't happen, they can, but you have stated a lot of things that just seems to be a lot of exaggeration for attention..
Look I don't mean to be rude or deny that you're knowledgeable, please don't take it that way. One of the pictures I posted in one of those threads clearly shows a 100a breaker in the box of a 30a service, and all of the 120VAC wiring entering into a residential distribution panel via a hole cut with what was most likely an angle grinder with a cut off wheel. I'm familiar with the codes regarding high and low voltage wiring. If you would look at the thread I posted to RV forums and linked to then you can see what I'm referring too. I'm sure you guys get a lot of angry know it all's on here so I'm not taking this personally. Please just have a look at that post.
