I posted the following at the back of the recent converter discussion but I thought I might get a response quicker if I started a new thread.

First a little background on the coach, it is a mid 90's Clasco conversion and has all the wiring connected to a distribution panel and then to power circuit panel. The old converter is under rear cabinets and only accessible from the side and I will be reinstalling the new one there.

The linked photos shows my current converter connections. I identified the red power and ground wires that will connect to the new converter and the receptacle for the plug. I haven't removed it so I don't know for sure if it has internal fuses but I've included an interior shot for discussion.

If a fuse is needed, is a 40 Amp inline type adequate protection or is there another type that I should get. Also, the new converter instructions indicate a separate chassis ground is required which I will install.

Thanks in advance.
