Same connection, same heavy extension cord...something simple something happen or do I have to take it in

If you are connecting to house power, I assume you mean you are using an adapter and plugging into probably a 15 amp outlet. If so, then that is your maximum of amps, and this includes the RV and anything else in your house on that same circuit.
Are you perhaps now trying to run an air-conditioner in the RV...as this almost always overloads a 15 amp circuit breaker.
If you turned on the electric heating element to your water heater (12 amps), then this also will trip a 15 amp circuit breaker at your house with other things on.
