Just off the bat it sounds like you've figured out the problem by turning off the breakers in the converter. If you had some power already being pulled when you plugged into power then it could have been enough to blow the breaker in your garage.
If you want to replace the converter section then you'll need the Progressive Dynamics Replacement Section # PD4645V but I honestly would only do that if this is happening when it shouldn't be - like if all of your appliances were off/unplugged and the breaker still blew.
Aside from that you can check all of your wiring and connections to make sure everything is secured and connected properly.
