Refrigerator, range hood fan and light and burners all out

After traveling a dusty, bumpy gravel road we pulled into an rv park for the night and the fridge, stove burners, and light and fan above are all out. Can anyone help with suggestions?

Check the fuses? Cracked, burnt out?

Checked the fuses but did not see any burned out or cracked. I'm wondering if all the dust could have caused a problem. I'll double check the fuses again since that would be the most likely cause. Thanks for the reply.

I double checked and lo and behold the 20 amp is popped so I tried to replace it twice and it pops each time. Anybody know why?

There's a short in that line somewhere.

Open each item (lamp, fan etc) and look to see if there are any stray wires.

'No stove burners' could be a relay that provides auto shutoff in the event of no power.

Leave out the dead fuse while you take a simple continuity checker (a cheap VTVM will do nicely too) and test the socket of all that can be checked on that line.

Do you have a diagram of the DC circuits? Might help if you did...
