Question:
I need to replace a 7300 series model 7355 power converter in a trailer that is going to be wired to a 30 amp 110 v power. Do i still have to have a battery connected to the trailer?

Expert Reply:
Hey Thomas! You can set this up without using a 12V battery and everything will function as intended. If you just want a replacement section for the 7355 you can use the Progressive Dynamics Replacement Section for AC/DC Power Distribution Panel # PD4655V. If you want a complete replacement then I recommend the Progressive Dynamics 4000 Series # PD4060K.
What kind of trailer are you working on?
