Wyłącznik nożny serii A – biały – jednobiegunowy 15 A

The main function of this circuit breaker is to protect marine electrical circuits against overcurrents. It acts as a safety device that interrupts the circuit in case of excessive current, thus preventing damage to equipment and cables.

A single-pole circuit breaker means it protects and disconnects only one conductor in the circuit, typically the positive line in a direct current system. The '15 A' indicates its rated current, i.e., the maximum continuous current it can handle before tripping in case of an overload.

The BLUE SEA Series A circuit breakers, like this model, are designed for medium loads and secondary circuits, providing effective protection for individual or auxiliary applications. Series C is typically intended for higher amperages or bipolar applications, offering superior protection capacity for more demanding circuits.

Yes, this circuit breaker is specifically designed for the marine environment. It is optimized by BLUE SEA to provide reliable protection for electrical circuits on board vessels, contributing to the overall safety of your boat's electrical system.

Yes, this circuit breaker complies with the European Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC, 93/68/EEC and meets the product safety specification EN 60934 for equipment circuit breakers. This attests to its reliability and compliance with safety requirements.

Yes, this toggle circuit breaker is a manually resettable model. After tripping due to an overcurrent, simply toggle the switch to reset it and restore power once the cause of the overcurrent has been identified and resolved.

This circuit breaker is white. Its toggle design and white finish facilitate both aesthetic and functional integration in most electrical panels and control panels of vessels.

This circuit breaker is designed for panel mounting. It is typically installed in a cutout made in a control panel or electrical switchboard, with the switch accessible from the front.

The required cutout dimensions for installing this circuit breaker are available in the provided technical documents, specifically the 'Cutout Templates' and 'Dimensioned Drawing'. It is recommended to consult these diagrams to obtain precise measurements before making the cut.

To wire this single-pole circuit breaker, connect the positive line of the circuit to be protected to one terminal of the breaker, and the output from the other terminal of the breaker to the equipment or circuit you wish to power. In a DC system, it is critical to connect the breaker on the positive line to isolate the load.

Although the electrical operation is not affected by the vertical orientation, it is common to mount toggle circuit breakers so that the 'ON' position (up) is at the top and the 'OFF' position (down) is at the bottom, for visual consistency and ergonomics with most marine electrical installations.

For installing this circuit breaker, you will generally need the following tools:

A drill and a hole saw or a file for cutting the panel. A screwdriver suitable for the connection terminals. Wire strippers and crimping pliers to prepare the cables and terminals. A multimeter to check the connections.

Yes, this circuit breaker can be mounted on most control panels or electrical switchboards, whether they are made of aluminum, plastic, or fiberglass, provided the panel thickness is compatible with the breaker's mounting thread length and an appropriate cutout can be made.

Blue Sea circuit breakers are designed for the marine environment. Although they are robust, for optimal protection against direct water spray or excessive humidity, it is recommended to install them in a sheltered location or to use additional accessories such as protective caps if exposure is unavoidable.

Yes, this 15 A single-pole circuit breaker is fully compatible with 12 V DC and 24 V DC marine electrical systems, as its maximum rated voltage is 32 V DC. It can therefore be safely used in these configurations.

This circuit breaker is ideal for protecting a wide range of low- to medium-power marine equipment, such as:

Interior and exterior lighting (LED, navigation lights)
Bilge pumps
USB chargers or 12V sockets
Low-power electronic equipment (VHF, low-power fishfinders)
Fans or horns
It is important to ensure that the equipment's amperage does not exceed 15 A.

Yes, this circuit breaker is designed to integrate seamlessly with BLUE SEA Systems electrical distribution panels, as well as other standard panels on the market. It is often used as a spare part or for expanding circuits on these panels.

Yes, the compact design of this Series A rocker circuit breaker allows multiple units to be mounted side by side on the same panel, which is common for creating a multi-circuit distribution board. It is important to respect the recommended spacing for correct installation and optimal heat dissipation.
