The only difference is the amount of power you san draw without tripping it out.
As long as you are not using fan heaters then you should have no problems with a 10 amp :D

A member of another forum I'm a member of :roll: ( a caravanner ) has his own webpage

On there , he has drawn up a table of " Watts to Amps " , showing the kind of amps needed in comparison to the wattage of your appliances

Quite a handy table to print off .
