Yeah, a switch to 48-Volt “house” electrical in itself won’t reduce confusion, but with any luck RV manufacturers will find new ways to build on this upgrade and start cleaning up electrical design and make it simpler, easier to troubleshoot and cheaper to repair.

In my opinion RV manufacturers should strive for an ownership experience similar to electric cars with fewer things to worry about. Far too many owners don’t understand how RVs work, or how to repair them. Like electric cars, anyone should be able to get in and drive away with minimal learning. The old mindset that you needed to know how to change a tire, do a tune-up or a brake job in order to own a car is obsolete. Same applies to RVs. The average person today isn’t very handy with repairs of mechanical and electrical systems.
