Source for DC breakers

[Photolomy]

Anyone have a source for the DC breakers in our boats? They look like Blue Sea C-Series single pole breakers, but they do not seem to be available with a black toggle switch.

Round or rectangle panel hole?
Amperage?
Single, double or more poles?

Got a box of them.
Or give us a picture and amperage & I'll give you the part number.

I think Sam’s has them all except GFI breakers.

Those look like Airpax, which Sam's stock. At least on my 1971 boat, that's what they are.

Airpax is still in bussiness but ordering from sams is easier. Sometimes I pick them up on ebay if the price is good.

I understand that Airpax does not make the GFI breakers anymore. Has anyone found a source?

I understand that Airpax does not make the GFI breakers anymore. Has anyone found a source? I’ve looked hard and couldn’t find a source. I went back with a standard single pole and installed a GFI immediately downstream. Also labeled the panel to indicate where to look.

[jmooney]

That’s what I have done in the galley. Labeling is a good idea. In other areas, I have put GFI s at what might be a risky area.

[Captain Ralph]

Did we change subjects? Not familiar with GFI-DCv breakers.

Hatteras used GFI breakers for the circuits that powered receptacles. They get sensitive and start tripping constantly. Eventually, they won’t reset. I heard the reason that Airpax doesn’t make them is that Hatteras has the rights to produce them ,but decided not to do so . This is probably a rumor. And yes ,we inadvertently moved to AC. Wandering minds , probably age related.
