Toggle circuit breaker series A White - single-pole 5 A

This is an electrical protection device designed to manually or automatically interrupt a circuit in case of overload or short circuit. Single-pole means it protects a single line of the circuit (usually the positive in a marine DC system), and 5 A indicates its maximum rated current before tripping.

This circuit breaker is designed to protect low-amperage marine electrical circuits, such as lighting, small bilge pumps, or power supply to individual onboard instruments, from overloads and short circuits.

This toggle circuit breaker from the A series is white.

Its primary function is to ensure the safety of electrical equipment and installations by cutting off power to a faulty circuit. This protects against equipment damage, fire hazards, or electric shock.

A single-pole circuit breaker protects a single line in an electrical circuit, whereas a multi-pole circuit breaker (double-pole, triple-pole, etc.) protects multiple lines simultaneously. This model 7202-BSS is a single-pole circuit breaker.

Yes, this circuit breaker is specifically designed for marine environments. Its robust design is suited to harsh conditions, including potential exposure to moisture and salt.

This circuit breaker is manufactured by Carling Technologies, a company recognized in the field of electrical components.

Yes, as a toggle circuit breaker, it can be manually reset by moving the lever to the 'ON' position once the cause of the trip (overload or short circuit) has been resolved.

This circuit breaker has a rated current of 5 amperes (5 A). It is designed to trip if the current exceeds this value for a given period, thus protecting the circuit.

Yes, it complies with the European Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC, 93/68/EEC and the EN 60934 safety standard specific to circuit breakers for equipment. It also bears the CE marking.

The CE marking certifies that the circuit breaker complies with the essential requirements of the applicable European directives regarding safety, health, and environmental protection, ensuring its placement on the European market.

A 5 amp circuit breaker is ideal for protecting low-power circuits such as interior or exterior lighting, small navigation instruments, USB chargers, or other small electronic devices aboard a boat.

The precise cut-out dimensions for installing this circuit breaker are detailed in the product technical documents. It is recommended to refer to the cut-out templates and dimensional drawings provided, often available as technical images, for correct and safe installation.

The connection is made by connecting the power wire (usually the positive) to an input terminal and the output wire to the protected device or circuit at the output terminal. For a single-pole circuit breaker, polarity must be respected if the system is direct current (DC).

Yes, this circuit breaker is designed for integration into marine electrical panels. It requires a properly sized cutout for installation and secure mounting to fit most switch panels.

When installing in a marine environment, it is important to ensure good sealing around the circuit breaker if the location is exposed to water spray. It is also advisable to use marine-grade terminals and wires and to ensure all connections are tight to prevent corrosion and false contacts.

This circuit breaker is primarily designed for marine electrical systems, which are typically direct current (DC) systems. It is suitable for low-power applications where 5 ampere protection is required.

Yes, it is perfectly suited to protect individual electronic devices or small groups of devices requiring 5 amp protection, such as VHF radios, GPS units, depth sounders, or LED lighting aboard.

Yes, Blue Sea Systems Series A circuit breakers are commonly used in marine DC electrical systems operating at 12V or 24V, which are typical voltages for onboard boat applications.

Yes, this circuit breaker is manufactured by Carling Technologies and complies with EN 60934 safety standard for equipment circuit breakers, in addition to meeting the European low-voltage directives. These certifications confirm its quality and reliability for safe use.
