Expanding AC distribution panel
I'm looking at options for expanding the AC dist. on a Parallax 6300 dist. panel.

My Progressive Dynamics PD9280 I cut the cord while under warranty something went wrong, sent it into them using a RMA and a couple weeks later go a bill from then in US mail for $150.00. Called them up and was told I had cut the AC cord which voided their warranty.
Anyway just for peeace of mind or if I ever need to connect another PD underwarranty I thought I would install a fused AC recepticle for the converter.
Also for poeace of mind I would like the freezer power that has a powerstrip were on can plug other electics such as an electric weed wacker, power tool, etc. to also be fused with breaker at it's source connection to the 6300.
so i think i'm either going to use the AC (air. cond.) breaker spot or install a small breaker panel of two to four breakers spaces.
30 amps not much to work with but I'm fairly conscious about using electic on a 30 amp service which I've been connected to for ~10 years.
I don't really need all that much electric except for the frig and my computer that's connected to a AVR. The only other AC I use is for an electric grinder, weed wacker and an 1800 psi pressure washer I use once in a while for cleaning.
My other breakers on the 6300 are double combo breakers green, red and blue in color.
green = 30 amp
blue = 15 amp
red = 20 amp
Not much room to take a pic with my camera. I have other wiring there for a power meter that tells me how many watts and kilowatts are being used, displays voltage, current, power and energy.
From left to right it's green + red + red + blue + blue
30 amp + 20 amp + 20 amp + 15 amp + 15 amp
The double wide large breaker on the far right is a 15 amp for the AC which I could remove and use the space the freezer/shed and the converter.
