The way it was done at the factory is not a good practice. They used two 25 amp circuit breakers connected in parallel to make 50 amps. This can lead to the whole setup tripping at a lower current than 50 amps. It is a much better practice to replace the two breakers with a single 50 amp one. I recently did this on my trailer.

Thank you, Raul. I have printed out the photo and will check mine when I have access to the battery box (she's put away for the winter). I did take photos of the connections before removing the batteries but darned if I can find them now!
