What should electrical installations in recreational vehicles comply with, according to NFPA 1192?

Electrical installations in recreational vehicles must comply with Article 551, Parts I and III through VI of NFPA 70, which is the National Electrical Code (NEC). This specific set of regulations is tailored to electrical installations in recreational vehicles and ensures that they are safe and function correctly. By adhering to these guidelines, installers can ensure proper grounding, bonding, and installation practices that are crucial for reducing the risks of electrical hazards such as shocks or fire.

The NEC is recognized as a comprehensive standard for electrical safety, and compliance with these articles addresses unique aspects of electrical systems in vehicles, differentiating them from standard residential or commercial installations. This ensures that the electrical systems in recreational vehicles are specially designed to withstand various operational environments while maintaining safety and efficiency.

Local building codes, manufacturer specifications, and general safety protocols may all play roles in broader regulatory compliance but are not as specifically applicable as the standards laid out in NFPA 70 for electrical installations in recreational vehicles. Each of these other options might not include the detailed safety provisions that the NEC provides for this particular type of application.
