Hey Jean, so in the install instructions for the Progressive Dynamics converter part # PD9280A the wiring requirements are pretty interesting. For the chassis ground wire they recommend between 6 and 12 AWG.
From battery ground to converter negative they recommend between 2 and 14 AWG, and the same for the battery positive and positive lug of the converter.
So if you have the minimum thickness wire already you do not need to change anything.
