What Is a Panel Mount Circuit Breaker?
A panel mount circuit breaker is a protective device designed to safeguard your boat or RV’s electrical system. It automatically disconnects power during overloads or short circuits, preventing damage to wiring, electronics, and batteries. Unlike fuses, these breakers can be reset without replacement.
Benefits of Panel & Surface Mount Breakers
Protects trolling motors, lighting, and auxiliary circuits
Resettable design — no need to carry spare fuses
Durable marine-grade construction for harsh environments
Available in mid-range (10A–60A) and high amp (70A–250A) models
Simple installation for both surface mount and panel mount applications
Panel Mount vs. Surface Mount Circuit Breakers
Panel Mount Breaker
Installs flush in a breaker panel for a clean look
Ideal for compact or multi-circuit systems
Often used in mid-range applications (10A–60A)
Surface Mount Breaker
Mounted externally on bulkheads or near batteries
Handles higher amperage loads (70A–250A)
Great for trolling motors, windlasses, or inverters

What Is a Panel Mount Circuit Breaker?
Do I need a circuit breaker on my boat?
Yes. Circuit breakers protect wiring and equipment from overheating or damage during overloads or short circuits.
What’s the difference between a fuse and a breaker?
Fuses need to be replaced when blown, while breakers can simply be reset. This makes breakers more convenient for marine applications.
Which size breaker do I need?
Choose the amperage rating based on the load of your circuit. For trolling motors and auxiliary circuits, a 10A–60A panel mount breaker is common. For windlasses, inverters, or larger loads, a 70A–250A surface mount breaker is recommended.
Can I install a breaker myself?
Yes, most boat owners can handle breaker installation with basic tools. However, for complex systems or high-amp circuits, professional installation is best.
Are your breakers waterproof?
Yes. Our breakers are marine-rated and built to resist corrosion, water, and vibration in harsh boating conditions.
