Just curious as to why you would not get an RV outlet installed. Then you would never need worry about this situation ever again. You could run the A/C and other appliances up to the 30A limit of your circuit breaker just as if you were at a campground.
If your electrical panel is not too far from where you would want such an outlet, installation costs should not be through the roof.
Unfortunately, my RV normally sits about 200 cable feet away from that panel.
I plug it into a 15A GFCI to keep the batteries topped up. If I really need to run the AC, I unplug and start the generator.
Someday I'll get around to adding a 100A sub panel near my RV then add a 50A post using buried cable right beside its parking spot.
