50 amp MH, plugged into 30 amp, ok to run 2 ac units??

Something new for me. My motorhome has 50 amp service, however I'm currently plugged into a 30 amp outlet. Both my air conditioners are running. Is this ok to run both on 30 amps? Thank You Bria...

You can get away with it IF 1 or both of the units are 13,500 BTU units, BUT if both are 15,000 BTU units, they on the average pull 15 AMP each so on a 30 AMP breaker designed to sustain 24 AMPS over a sustained period your in trouble.
