When I hear the "code" stuff start about RV's I have to laugh.....

When you take a close look at these coaches, there are plenty of code violations if you want to go by the book.

On my last coach, a 2018 Outlaw 29H, the Inverter was located in the rear drivers side storage bin. Whoever wired the coach at the factory used SOOW cable from the Inverter output through a hole in the bin and then under the coach to a hole in the floor where it went into a junction box and was connected to Romex to feed the TV's.

I'm not a certified electrician but I am fairly certain SOOW should not be used in place of Romex and since the cable was exposed to the elements being run under the frame of the coach it should have been run through a flexible conduit.
