I am going to replace my Buzz Box with a Progressive Dynamics PD9245C (As recommended by many of the Forum members), after 47 years of service, (even though it is working Fine). And No, I have not had any Battery Boiling issues with the Buzz Box in the past. I have hesitated to change it due to, "If it Ain't Broke Don't Fix it" mantra - but it is overdue to make this upgrade.
My Coach: 76 GMC Glenbrook: Two 6V Rear Coach Batteries in Series. 12V Engine Battery in Front.
My Question to the electricians out there, is to Wire Gauge Connections of the PD9245.
Or, any other things I should modify with the installation of the PD9245C?
From the current Buzz Box the main Red 4 Gauge wire goes to the original Fuse Bar (Glass Fuses), The Black 4 Gauge wire goes to the Frame somewhere out of sight. There is a 10? Gauge wire that goes from the Fuse Bar out of sight I assume to the Rear Battery Junction (As per the Wiring Diagram).
Specifically, since this a 45amp converter, does this 10? Gauge wire to the Rear Battery Junction need to be improved to a larger size? 6 Gauge? or 4 Gauge? Or, is 10 Gauge OK with the PD9245C?
