Expert Reply:
If you'll be installing the Curt # C51180 Echo Wireless Brake Controller, you'll want to use a 30A breaker, like part # 38630, you'll also need 12 gauge wire, ring terminals and butt connectors. We actually sell all this in a kit as part # BRK-ELECKIT.
I've linked to a video explaining how the Curt Echo brake controller works, as well as to a video that will run you through the install.
