Odklopnik serije A, črna barva – enopolni 15 A

A 15 amp single-pole toggle circuit breaker 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 conductor (usually the positive) in a circuit. Its 15 A rating indicates the maximum current it can handle under normal operation.

The main function of this BLUE SEA A-series circuit breaker is to protect electrical equipment and wiring in your marine installation from damage caused by overcurrent, whether due to overloads (excessive but stable current) or short circuits (sudden and dangerous current surge).

Yes, this circuit breaker is specifically designed for protecting electrical circuits in a marine environment. It is manufactured by Carling Technologies, a supplier known for its robust components suited to the demanding conditions on boats.

A 15 A circuit breaker is suitable for a wide range of DC applications on board a boat. It can be used to protect circuits such as:

Interior or exterior lightingBilge pumpsVentilation fansCertain navigation instruments12 V / 24 V power outlets

This circuit breaker is suitable for direct current (DC) applications and is commonly used in 12V and 24V DC marine electrical systems. The product context indicates it is specifically designed for DC applications.

Yes, this circuit breaker fully complies with the European Low Voltage Directives 73/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC. It also meets EN 60934, the standard specific to circuit breakers for equipment, ensuring its performance in terms of protection.

Yes, this circuit breaker is CE marked. The CE marking is present on the packaging and/or directly on the circuit breaker, attesting to its compliance with European safety standards.

The main difference lies in the number of conductors protected:

A single-pole circuit breaker, like this one, protects a single conductor (usually the positive wire in a DC circuit) by interrupting the current flow on that single wire. A double-pole circuit breaker simultaneously protects two conductors (for example, the positive and negative in a DC circuit, or the phase and neutral in an AC circuit) by cutting both wires at the same time in case of a fault.

This circuit breaker is designed for panel mounting. It requires a specific cutout in the electrical panel or control panel. Once inserted, it is typically secured using standard mounting nuts or clips, ensuring a secure and flush installation.

The precise cut-out dimensions for installing this circuit breaker are available in the technical diagrams provided with the product. It is recommended to consult the cut-out template to ensure a perfect and secure fit in your panel.

No, this circuit breaker is a self-contained protection device. It is designed to replace fuses and their associated fuse holders. Therefore, no additional fuse holder is needed for the circuit it protects.

When installing in a humid environment such as a boat, it is essential to ensure that electrical connections are properly insulated and protected from moisture and water spray to prevent corrosion and short circuits. Although the circuit breaker is designed for a marine environment, careful installation and the use of heat-shrink tubing or waterproof connectors for terminals are recommended for maximum durability.

Yes, this circuit breaker is an excellent alternative to 15 A fuses. It can be reset after an overload, eliminating the need to replace a blown fuse, which is particularly convenient at sea.

Yes, this circuit breaker is compatible with 12V and 24V DC electrical systems, which are the most common voltages in marine applications. It is designed to operate efficiently within this voltage range.
