How to determine rating of a new converter panel?

If I were to upgrade our basic WFCO converter to one of the good ones like PD, how do you determine the rating to use? 45, 60, 70 or 80 amps? Is bigger better? We don't dry camp and don't discharge...

I would suggest a lower section like this. Call Randy at Best to insure it will serve your needs. I would say stay with the 55 amp.

The #8 if coming from batteries is a little small. If easy to replace then do so. If not make sure the fusing is correctly sized.
