Give me a second and I'll try to post a pic...I am connected to a 20 amp plug at our church building (have done this for the past 5-6 years without trouble). I have 120 volts at the outlet and am running the fridge on propane. I have 117-119 volts at an outlet in the camper.

I have run the AC on a regular 20 amp circuit before and have always been very careful about not running anyhting else.
