Les,
Your Newell really needs 30 amp service minimum. On my coach when I plug into 30 amp service I set my invertor control panel to 30 amps so the battery charger doesn't take all the power. On my coach the refrigerator can be turned off two ways. Inside the refrigerator & freezer boxes there are round knobs that can be set to off. Or you can shut off the circuit breaker which on my coach is located in the 5th basement bay back, rear wall on the driver's side. If your coach will be in freezing temperatures and you only have 30 amp power you may need to run the diesel burner to keep the coach warm as the biggest BTU electrical heating element is 220V and requires a 50 amp hookup. Two other things won't work on 30 amp service. Cooktop is 220V and your dryer is probably 220V. Everything else should work fine.
