AirPax breaker toggle switchs

Post by mrmike1964 »

Dose anyone know what the amp rating is on the airpax breaker toggle switches in the motor room that run the control panel above the helm. I need to replace both of mine.

Thanks Mike

I will look this weekend but I am surely surprised that 10 amps could be adequate to power even half of the overhead console, I have a fresh water pump that draws over half of that by itself. I would bet on 30 amps but ??? I might lose that bet without first verifying.

I pulled both breakers and from what I can tell on the back of them it has a T11 on the top lift side. It comes up as a 120volts 10.0amp single pole. One runs the windless and nav lights,shower,sniffer, depth finder. The other runs the fresh water pump and spot light bilge blower,cabin lights, wipers. The frig and bilge pumps have a breaker too.
10 amp seems to low to me as well. I have to say the way the Electrical is installed it not what I'm used to working on.

Am I right in thinking the 12V ACC STBD should be around a 50amp breaker and the Port 12v ACC should be the same? The STBD bilge is the 10amp I need to replace and will replace the port one as well
