[C320-list] Push Button Circuit Breaker

[Jeff Smith]

Troy,

Thanks. I am pretty sure the wire is the appropriate AWG as recommended by the installation manual; this suggests to me that it should be sufficient to handle the load. However, I will confirm before installing the charger. Between the battery charger, the new Blue Sea Terminal Fuse Block and fuse (currently no inline fuses on the battery cables), and possibly new wiring, the costs continue to increase. The joys of boat ownership....

    In case you didn’t know...The breakers are there to protect your wiring
    which will catch fire if pushed past their limit.   If there is a 10 amp
    breaker for your current charger but your new charger requires 15 amps,
    you’ll need to run wire sized to handle 15 amps from your new breaker to
    your new charger.
