    No problems running converter, fridge, and 1 high amperage appliance on 20amps, as long as you have the proper adapters and cords.

    20 Amp will work if the run to the panel is short and no other high draw appliances are running on the same circuit.

    I have heard of folks melting plugs when they used an extension cord to get power to their RV from a garage outlet. Make sure you only use the trailer power cord or a short heavy duty extension cord to reach the outlet.
