Common Questions What is the primary advantage of a resettable circuit breaker over a fuse? A resettable circuit breaker, like the Photonic Universe CB30, automatically resets or can be manually reset after an over-current event, eliminating the need to replace a blown fuse. This saves time, cost, and ensures continuous operation once the fault is cleared. Can this circuit breaker be used as a simple On/Off switch? Yes, in addition to over-current protection, this circuit breaker features a manual-break option, allowing it to function as a convenient On/Off isolator switch for easy disconnection and reconnection of your DC system. Is this circuit breaker suitable for outdoor or marine environments? Absolutely. The CB30 is IP67 rated, meaning it is highly resistant to water and dust ingress. It is also ignition protected, meeting S.A.E. J1625, J1171, and UL1500 standards, making it well-suited for demanding outdoor, automotive, and marine applications. Installation Notes This circuit breaker is designed for surface mounting. Ensure correct polarity when connecting to your DC system. Always disconnect power before installation or maintenance. Consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure about installation procedures. Ensure M6 terminals are securely fastened to prevent loose connections and overheating. Before You Buy Verify the 30A rating is appropriate for your circuit's maximum continuous current. Confirm your DC system voltage (12V, 24V, or 48V) is compatible. Check physical dimensions (74 x 48 x 37 mm) for your intended mounting location. Ensure your wiring uses appropriate M6 terminals for secure connection. Consider the environmental conditions; IP67 rating offers excellent protection. Always verify product specifications and compatibility with your specific system requirements before purchase and installation. All technical data is based on manufacturer specifications.
