Mike,
I am also with Bruce with the issue of an integrated power panel with an internal 12VDC power converter. There are power distribution panels that have a 120VAC CB on one side and as DCV fuses or DC circuit breakers on the other side. I found one a Bontrager's in there surplus electrical section. I will go out to the Avion and look at the box and see if it has a manufacture or part number on the box.
It is similar to this item:

If the internal power converter ever fails then your screwed. You would have to take it apart and remove the damage internal unit and wire it for an external unit.
JWIWD your experience may vary.
