Expert Reply:
Hey Dennis! The Progressive Dynamics 4500 Series RV Converter w/ Charge Wizard and AC/DC Distribution Panel # PD4575K18LS8 you were looking at will be the best option for your 50 amp service conversion. You will also need a 50A power inlet like the SmartPlug # SM79FR and power cord # SM86FR. More than likely you will need to upgrade the gauge of your wiring running to the power center to handle the higher load.
