Ron that is a tough one that I did consider. [Linked Image]

Here is my opinion take it for what it is worth [Linked Image] I do not have facts to back it up.

The NEC does not consider those overcurrent devices in the trailer as the whole trailer is one listed, labeled, piece of utilization equipment.

As an example, my home stereo amplifier has a fuse for the incoming power, does that make the wiring to my wall outlet a feeder?

Looking at this from another direction if we do consider this circuit to be a feeder what section of the NEC relives us of the ground rod requirement?

I do not see anyone driving rods on a regular basis for RVs. That means thousands are in violation or there is a code section that relives us from 250.32.

This is how I came up with my opinion, I would be more than happy to hear other opinions. [Linked Image]
