Victron multiplus 2 3000va. What size breakers for breaker box?
So I am trying to order the stuff to wire up my Victron MultiPlus 2 3000VA to a breaker box, so I can then have some 120v outlets in my van (laptops, blender, water heater, etc). I have no clue what size breaker to get for the main power coming into the breaker box (from ac-out-1). The manual says it can spike up to 75A while on shore power. So does that mean I need to make the main breaker in this breaker box 75A? That seems like some HUGE wire I would need. I do not think I am understanding this correctly. I feel like the 30a breaker should be enough, as I am going to only ever be using 30 amp shore power (when I'm not running off my 12v battery bank). I figure the 16a breakers will be enough for my individual outlets. Thoughts on my shopping list as well as my other concerns? Ps. I am on a budget but if you all have a nicer distribution box, or breakers, for not too much more, I will bit on it.
