Where to use it
The Alvolta 100A Manual Reset Circuit Breaker protects DC cables in dual battery systems and other 12-48V circuits in 4WDs, motorhomes, caravans, boats and off-grid setups. Being IP67 sealed and ignition protected, it suits under-bonnet use on vehicles that do serious off-road work. After a trip it stays off until you reset it, so you can check the fault first.
Choose the rating to protect the cable: at or below the cable's current capacity and above the normal load. It surface mounts, takes cables on 1/4" studs and is backed by a 1-year warranty.

A manual reset circuit breaker protects your electrical system from overloads and short circuits. When tripped, it cuts off power to prevent damage, and can be manually reset once the issue is investigated and resolved - making it ideal for automotive, marine, solar, and off-grid applications.
A manual reset breaker stays off after tripping, allowing you to inspect and correct the fault before restoring power. In contrast, an automatic reset breaker reconnects power automatically once it cools down, which can risk repeated faults if the issue isn't fixed.
Alvolta manual reset circuit breakers are sealed against moisture, dust and dirt. The surface mount ranges are IP67 rated and the 255 series panel mount breakers are IP66 rated. Check the ingress protection rating in each product's specifications.
Circuit breakers will experience less voltage drop across the circuit. When they are tripped, you can simply reset the device as opposed to having to source and install a new fuse, should a fuse blow. These units offer lower voltage drop than a fuse and can be used as an occasional isolation switch.
Screw the breaker to a flat surface through its mounting holes (see the mounting hole size in the specifications), then connect the positive supply and load cables to the terminal studs using correctly sized lugs. Always choose a breaker rated to protect the cable it feeds.
