There's no such thing as a a 10 VOLT supply from a bollard. Presumably you/the site mean 10 AMP. In which case that's plenty, you won't trip the electric.
Am a bit puzzled at a site informing potential customers it's 10 volt though, rather than 10 amp.
Plenty of threads about how much you can load onto different EHU stanchions (they’ll explain voltage & amps, I can’t). Your fridge will be ok, but don’t overload anything with a heating element: don’t dry your hair when the kettle is boiling, use a travel kettle not a domestic one, etc: that’s far more likely to trip the stanchion than your fridge.
That's almost certainly a 10 AMP supply! A 10 volt outlet would have no purpose, not even suitable for standard 12v caravan/camper/MH equipment.
Your fridge on 240v EHU will only draw less than 1 AMP, so no trouble at all. But as others have said, don't use a lot of high powered things all at the same time, and often overlooked, inbuilt electric heating and water heaters are high powered devices, so is a Microwave!
Main thing to watch is your kettle if it's a 3kw one as many domestic kettles used at home usually are. We had a 1kw kettle for caravan which was fine for 2 of us.
3kW is 12 Amps on it's own so could easily trip 10A supply..
Concur with the others that it is almost certain to be 10 AMP and not Volts.
Also concur with the others not to use more than one appliance with a heating element at the same time to avoid tripping the EHU.
I did not want to get a low wattage kettle as I had one of those before and it took too long to boil a small amount of water.
It was difficult to find full size domestic kettles under 3kW nowadays, however, I managed to find a 2kW 1L kettle which is fine by me being on my own. It is one of those that is found in hotel rooms and I am very happy with it.
