People plug RVs into 15 amp circuits all the time. You can't run the microwave or AC and probably not the electric water heater element, but everything else should be fair game.

I would trip all CB in your AC panel, and then try plugging in.

Then turn on the RV master and only the DC converter. This will pwr the charger to your battery. On most RV, the battery will charge even though you have the DC master switch in the off position.

No, the "DC Master Switch" is a battery disconnect. The house batteries WILL NOT CHARGE with the battery disconnect open as many have discovered the hard way.

If you run the Refrig, this will overload house circuit.

Again, incorrect information. Both an absortion fridge as well as a residential fridge run at under 400 watts. That's less than 4 amps at 120 VAC.

So much misinformation in one post.
