Still not sure what a converter rating is based on. Is it the total DC load in an RV, recharge time or total battery capacity, or all?
Most RVs only need 35 amps but a 55 amp WFCO is only $10 more and looks better on the brochure.
Unfortunately the wire and battery are too small from OEM to have the 8955 work properly and the system does not really function as a 3-stage converter like the big yellow sticker says :(
35 to 60 amps is fine even with the added compressor. I would tend to go 60 amp max on replacing that main fuse. You may need to add a branch circuit fuse if the 30 amp protected some smaller wires such as to power the slide.
