I'm filling out a form for a comp. I don't have an RV, and the only electric I do is my guru, my ipod and my worklights.
Do I need 20 or 30 amp electrical?

20 amps? 30 amps?
Must be a contest in the south. In the northeast, if we use more than a few hundred watts we pop the breakers. We get 2-4 teams sharing a 15 amp circuit (1650 watts @ 110v) at most events. (Hudson Valley, Cape Cod, and Troy being the exceptions - thank you organizers!)
Pick an outlet in your house, unplug everything from it, then plug everything that you will use at the comp into it. If the breaker doesn't blow then you can more than likely get away with a 20 amp breaker.
Sounds like 20 amps will do it. I routinely run my travel trailer (with A/C) from a 20 amp breaker.
