Check the circuit breaker that the outlet is connected to. Is it a 20amp or a 15amp? Is there anything else connected to that breaker? Other outlets, appliances, etc.

If nothing else is connected to the breaker and she is ONLY using the AC (no other appliances in the RV), or just the microwave or just the coffee maker, then she should be OK.
