I wouldn't worry about it if all you are trying to accomplish is keeping the batteries charged. Since if your battery charger is simply trickle charging your batteries, it's highly likely it's not pulling anywhere near 15amps, just on it's own. When the lot loses power for a time, and then it gets restored, it's possible that your rig could then be pulling more power than normal, but that's the lot's fault, not yours. Once the batteries get back to somewhat 'full', where only absorb or float charging are in order, your charger will no longer be pulling much amps.
If your lot provides power with several rigs sharing the same '15amp' circuit, it's certainly understandable that a tripped breaker is highly likely on a regular basis, no matter what setting you dial your charger to.
