Upgraded converter

I have just purchased an upgrade for my converter . The problem is I cant figure where the orange wire goes on new converter... there is the hot black....the ground green and then the orange which I'm asuming is another hot wire... but it's not mentioned in instructions and cant find a wiring diagram of my fuse panel anywhere as mine is old with ag fuses

Welcome, please provide more information. Is it a standalone or unit that mounts in the bottom compartment of a WFCO power box?

Also please share what year, make, model of Winnebago you are asking the question for.

Converters have a Positve 12 V and 12 Negative Ground connection, and 120 VAC power connection ( Hot / Black + Neutral / White ). There is also a ground that is normally bare or green.

Ivy, what is the manufacturer and model number of the new converter? A few picture would also help.
