Simplify your RV's power systems with the Progressive Dynamics PD4560AV 4500 Series RV Converter with Charge Wizard and AC/DC Distribution Panel. This 2-in-1 unit combines a 60-amp smart converter/charger with a full-size 4500 Series AC/DC distribution panel — delivering serious distribution capacity with mid-range charging power for RVs that need the larger panel without the full 90A converter output.
2-in-1 Design — Full-Size Panel + Smart Converter
The PD4560AV combines two components into a single unit:
- AC/DC distribution panel — supplies AC and DC distribution to your RV's electrical system
- 60A smart converter/charger — converts AC shore power into DC power to charge your battery bank and run 12V loads
Fewer separate components, less wiring complexity, faster installation. The result is a complete power control center that lives in a single accessible box.
AC Distribution — 240 VAC / Up to 12 Branch Circuits
The AC section is rated for 240V at 50 amps with space for up to 6 breakers — and supports up to 12 branch circuits when using tandem breakers. That's the same large-format AC capacity as the 90A PD4590AV, just paired with a smaller converter.
DC Distribution — 18 Fuse Holders with Lever Lock Connectors
The DC section includes 18 branch fuse holders:
- (4) 30-amp fuse holders
- (14) 20-amp fuse holders
One of the standout features: lever lock connectors make wiring dramatically faster and more secure. Simply open the lever, insert the wire, and close — no fiddly screw terminals, no wire pull-out worries. Real time-saver during installation.
Please note: AC breakers and DC fuses are sold separately. Once installed, the breakers and fuses are accessible by opening the door on the front of the box, which includes a blank label for listing your connections.
Lithium AND Lead-Acid Compatible
The PD4560AV includes an output mode switch that lets you choose between lithium and lead-acid charging profiles — so whatever batteries are in your RV today (or whatever you upgrade to tomorrow), the converter delivers the most efficient charging profile.
Lithium Mode — Designed for LiFePO4
In lithium mode, the unit uses a higher output voltage for fast, complete charging. The profile extends battery life by using the appropriate charging curve, and it's compatible with your battery's internal Battery Management System (BMS) — helping manage the charge cycle by monitoring battery state and balancing cell voltage.
Lead-Acid Mode — Charge Wizard 4-Stage Charging
In lead-acid mode, Progressive Dynamics' Charge Wizard automatically switches voltages as your battery bank charges. This accelerates charging while extending battery life. Compatible with flooded lead-acid, AGM, and gel batteries. The four charging stages:
- Boost — full rated load for quicker recharge time. This is where most of the charging happens, taking the battery to 90% capacity.
- Normal — controlled voltage as the battery reaches capacity to safely complete the charge.
- Storage — kicks in after 30 hours of unused full-charge state; maintains lower voltage to compensate for self-discharge, reducing battery stress, gassing, and water loss.
- Equalization — prevents acid stratification and sulfate buildup during extended storage. Especially helpful for batteries that go unused for long periods.
⚠️ Important Installation Note
If your RV already has a stock converter charger, it will need to be removed to ensure the PD4560AV operates properly. Don't try to run both — the result is unreliable charging behavior.
Comprehensive Safety Features
Multiple layers of protection safeguard both the converter and your batteries:
- Reverse polarity protection — protects the converter if batteries are hooked up incorrectly
- Overvoltage protection
- Undervoltage protection
- Overcurrent protection
- Variable-speed cooling fan — proportional to internal temperature; quiet at low loads, ramps up only when needed
UL Listed & Made in USA
The PD4560AV is UL listed and proudly made in the USA — backed by a 2-year limited manufacturer warranty.
Considering Other Progressive Dynamics All-In-One Units?
We carry the full Progressive Dynamics all-in-one converter/panel range:
- Progressive Dynamics PD4045KV (45A, 4000 Mini) — compact panel (6 AC + 12 DC), 45-amp output for smaller RVs and trailers
- Progressive Dynamics PD4060KV (60A, 4000 Series) — same 60A converter capacity as this unit, but in a compact 4000 Series panel (6 AC + 12 DC) for installations where space is tight
- Progressive Dynamics PD4590AV (90A, 4500 Series) — same full-size 4500 Series panel (12 AC + 18 DC) as this unit, with higher 90-amp converter output for larger fifth wheels and toy haulers
Just Need the Converter Section?
If your PD4560-series Power Control Center has a failed converter section but the rest of the panel is fine, the Progressive Dynamics PD4560CSV Replacement Converter Section is the drop-in repair part — same 60A Charge Wizard converter with Lithium/Lead-Acid switch, designed to slide into your existing panel without rewiring the entire distribution box.
