Is this correct? I have the amp thing figured out as to what I can run without blowing the breaker but the volt thing has me confused. Am I good as long as the pedestal is giving me 120? Do I need to keep turning things off to keep the voltage above 104? 2016 Axis 25.2
Thanks for all the help.

Your park has low voltage issues due to undersized wire for the distance to deliver the proper voltage. It's called Voltage Drop. Turn on the toaster, coffee pot (Brewing not just on warm), and micro wave. The voltage should still be at 120 volts at the PED. I'll guaranty it is not.
Hughes Auto transformer will fix this problem. About $350.00 from Amazon. Do not try to run your A/C with less than 110 volts at the PED.
Acceptable voltage is 108 to 132. But not for your A/C.
