House AC went out can I hook up to 20 amp gfci

be nice if it was a 20amp out let, and I,d not use any thing else on that line. I run my rv ac off one with no problem.

Is your "normal house outlet" 120 volts or 240V?
If it is 120v then yes but I wouldn't run anything else such as converter/charger, fridge, water heater.

I’m guessing 120 volt. All my house breakers say 20 also

One of the nice things about an RV is that if something like the heat or AC goes out in your house, you can use the RV. As others said, just run one AC and nothing else and you should be fine. Usually worst case, you trip a breaker. I had a previous Class A that didn't mind a 15A for AC. My current FW prefers a 20A - it will trip a 15A even with only one AC running.

Very likely yes. I have a less than ideal service to my shop and am able to run the AC on all of the campers we've had off of a 15A service.
But at some point (may not have been the camper AC) that outlet got hot.
I replaced with a 20A outlet (since it is only a few feet from the subpanel, and already on a 20A breaker) and that works like a charm.

Keep the extension cord short. If you're using just your RV cord with no additional extension cord(s), that is the best scenario.

Worst case, it pops the breaker feeding that outlet. No harm, no foul.

He said it was 20A in his title.

I do it all the time.

If you need an extension cord use a short 12AWG. Make one if you have to.

This is a bad week in Tx for losing your AC

As they said, yes, mine will do the 13500 ac and the tv. Nothing else. But thats all I needed. Use a large guage extention cord. The rv one is ideal.

Switch the fridge to propane if you can, I dont know if I had mine on or not.

Yes, you should be able to. But, as already said, don't run anything else when running the A/C, and be very careful about what extension cord you use, if any.

If regular RV cord won't reach the 20 amp outlet without an extension, instead of using a typical household extension cord, I'd recommend getting a 30 amp RV extension cord, and using that.

That way, you can be pretty sure that voltage drop over the cord won't be a problem, and you'll also have an extra RV extension cord you can carry with you in case you need it at a campsite later on.
