so I should add a terminal stud and connect the positive and existing dc wire and run it to the positive side of the inverter? Im removing the existing converter. Should I install a 300amp line fuse?
You should add a proper "T" fuse (That's a fuse type) not sure but the owner's manual for the inverter will list the fuse size 250-300 amps is not uncommon for a 2000 watt inverter. not sure about yours.
Run one HEAVY (00Ga or bigger) wire from battery positive to fuse. this should be short. 1 foot or less. then move all the wires currently attached to battery positive to this fuse. I'd hook 'em to the battery end of the fuse same terminal I hook the battery cable to (use it as a distribution stud) and then the other end is connected to the inverter in the next compartment. also using heavy (00 or bigger) wire.
When I say I would do it. I mean I did it.
Makes it a lot easier when I need to change batteries as there is only ONE WIRE hooked to the battery positive instead of several.
