As I am making a list and plans for "dropping the coroplast" I am thinking of the stock placement of the converter. Reading through some of the Solar and other Electrical threads it seems there is something to having the converter closer to the battery. In my 29RS fifth wheel the converter is about 5 or 6 feet from the battery and about 2 feet from the power distribution panel. The wire from the converter to the battery may be longer as I do not know where it goes once it enters the floor and reappears at the battery.
Questions.....
1. Is the location of the converter to the battery important?
2. Does the location and distance from the battery effect the charge rate?
3. Is the distance from the battery to the power distribution panel important?
4. Is the distance from the converter to the power distribution panel important?
5. Will wire size make up for a distance on any of the questions above?
One note that I have noticed is that the converter positive goes to the power distribution panel and then to the battery , Should this be changed?
More than likely this will not be all but is a start.
