Potential Fire Hazard!!

While doing some work on our 2019 26xd Redhawk, I came onto this.

This conductor feeds the 110 outlet under the dinette bench. On our unit, it was pulled very tight over the edge of the aluminum angle piece that holds the dinette seat together. The edge of the aluminum piece is very sharp. To make it worse, they stapled a piece of luan over the conductor which pressed it tighter to the edge of the aluminum.

The cover on my conductor was already showing abrasion at the point of contact with the aluminum. I expect it would eventually cut into the wire. Unbelievably poor workmanship. I corrected it on mine by adjusting the slack, installing plastic wire cover and cutting an access opening in the luan cover.
