RV Roamer said:I haven't seen any reports or evidence that the type of electrical outlet being discussed is responsible for numerous electrical fires or even for loss of power. I might add that the same cannot be said for the spring type push in connections that ARE approved for residential use.
I am aware of at least one case where there intermittent power at an outlet that may have been a potential for possible fire. I helped a neighbor in a campground troubleshoot a condition in which power may or may not be available at one outlet after travel. Removal of the outlet revealed that the wire had not been properly installed and would sometimes make contact and sometimes not. Proper connection of the wire corrected the anomaly.
