1500 watt heaters may "Stress" RV wiring some.. but that said.
I routinely run a 1500 on 30 amps along with the fridge.
But you have the fridge, You may have a battery charger/converter sucking up to 10 amps (1,000 watts) depending on how big it is and how hungry the batteries are, and the fridge pulling up to 400 not to mention the 1200 watt water heater.
I just typed 3100 watts if I'm not mistaken.
A 30 amp breaker will trip at a sustained load over 27 amps.
