OK, I'm in the process of changing out the inverter for a converter.
The existing Positive DC cable to the inverter is 4/0 and is on the fused side of the Positive feed, The Negative Cable is also 4/0, and attached to the Chassis (not the negative battery).My thought is to use the existing positive feed to the new converter, and run a new Negative feed to the battery negative. My coach has a monitoring system and a shunt between the negative line and load. Which side of the shunt should I run the negative converter cable.
To power the converter, I would tie the existing AC incoming line to the existing AC outgoing line, and install an outlet in that circuit to power the converter. There is a breaker in the AC distribution box marked INVERTER for this circuit. Again, I am eliminating the inverter.
Sound Good?
