Ooops. That will only work for a concrete septic tank. If the tank
is insulated fiberglass, there may be problems.

They might want to know why he's asking. That'll go as one of the problems.

Your campsites sound quite different to ours.

In Europe, while not all sites are the same, relatively few pitches have
the pipe work for toilet or even grey water or fresh water. On a good
site, perhaps 10% will have grey and fresh water facilities at the
pitch. The rest will probably have electricity.

Toilets are in a block. There are facilities to empty 'black' tanks.

A pitch will be, perhaps 7mx7m. People tend to be wary of strange things
like antennas and trailing wires, which people (esp. children) may trip
over are a particular issue. There are already electrical 'hook up'
wires about. The last thing you want while on holiday is to have
contributed to someone being injured.
