Gen Circuit Breaker 2-pole AC 230 VAC, 85 A, standard trip delay

This circuit breaker is designed to protect alternating current (AC) circuits aboard boats from overloads and short circuits. It ensures the safety of marine electrical installations by cutting off power in the event of an electrical failure.

This circuit breaker is specifically designed to operate with 230 VAC (volts alternating current) electrical systems.

The rated current of this circuit breaker is 85 amperes (A). It is suitable for applications requiring this current capacity for effective protection.

A "2-pole" circuit breaker means it simultaneously disconnects both conductors (typically the live and neutral or two live wires) of an AC circuit in case of a fault. This provides complete isolation of the load from the electrical network, increasing safety.

An average tripping delay means the circuit breaker is optimized to react in a balanced way to overcurrents. It does not trip instantly for short-duration transient overloads but trips fast enough to protect equipment and wiring from prolonged damage.

Yes, this circuit breaker is specifically designed for marine applications and environments, providing reliable protection for electrical installations aboard vessels.

It protects circuits against overcurrents (when current exceeds the rated value) and short circuits (accidental connection between two points in the circuit with low resistance, causing very high current).

This circuit breaker is a Raymarine product.

It is typically installed in the AC distribution panels on board, serving as protection for main power lines or high-consumption equipment such as water heaters or powerful battery chargers.

It is imperative that the installation be carried out by a qualified professional, in compliance with current marine electrical standards (such as ABYC or IEC 60533) to ensure the safety and compliance of the vessel's electrical system.

This circuit breaker must be wired in series with the circuit it protects. Both AC circuit conductors (live and neutral or two live wires) must be connected to the appropriate input and output terminals of the circuit breaker, following the electrical diagrams of the distribution panel.

Yes, this circuit breaker is designed to integrate into onboard electrical systems and can contribute to the compliance of complete systems, including OctoPlex AC power distribution units.

No, this circuit breaker is specifically designed and calibrated for 230 VAC systems. Using it with different voltages could compromise its optimal operation and the safety of the circuit.

No, this circuit breaker is specifically designed for alternating current (AC) circuits and must not be used for direct current (DC) applications.

Yes, this circuit breaker is specifically designed for alternating current (AC) circuits and must not be used for direct current (DC) applications.

Yes, you can replace an existing circuit breaker with this Raymarine model, provided the technical specifications (voltage, rated current, number of poles, AC current type) match exactly those of the circuit breaker to be replaced and the physical dimensions allow for its integration. It is recommended to consult a professional.

Periodic visual inspections of all mounting components and connections are recommended to ensure they are in good condition and properly secured. Any signs of wear or damage must be addressed.

If the circuit breaker trips, this indicates an overcurrent or short circuit in the protected circuit. It is imperative to identify and correct the cause of the problem before resetting the circuit breaker. If the problem persists after resetting, consult a qualified marine electrician.

Designed for marine environments, this circuit breaker is robust. However, it must be installed in a suitable distribution panel or housing that provides adequate protection against water spray and excessive moisture, in accordance with marine installation standards, to ensure its longevity and performance.

This circuit breaker is designed to be mounted and integrated into AC (alternating current) distribution panels on vessels. It is a key component for protecting individual circuits within these panels, ensuring reliable and safe power interruption.
