I'm working on updating my RV power system and adding solar. I have a basic understanding of my system but wanted to ask for some help on next level details. I can piece together my components, but I'm lacking the understanding of how some items work together.
I currently have a 12v 2 X 6v AGG 225Ah batteries (shown below with 2 12v 100Ah) system with a 3000w inverter. I'm considering new lithium batteries, solar and possibly going to 24v. Here's what I'm trying to pickup...

- Converter power - If a converter is sized at 50A, is that shore power that it can handle to charge the batteries along with anything else running in the camper at the time (lights, fan, fridge or other smaller pulls)? I know it is charging the battery that then feeds the DC fuse box, but will the converter have any other job with the fuse box?
- AC Panel - Is this separate from the DC fuse box or part of that? I know the difference between AC and DC, but I'm not sure how the camper outlets are wired for AC when the camper is plugged into shore. Why don't I need a switch between AC and DC? It must be automatic because I'm not doing anything other than plugging the camper into my garage.
