I have done this for the last 15 years on 3 different campers and have never had a problem.
I also have kept my last 4 rigs (20 years) plugged in, with no problems, I installed a 30 amp outlet to run an air conditioner when it gets hot. I think the heat causes more damage than cold. For bitter cold I have a 100 gallon pig for LP and run it at 45 even though i winterize.
