Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Type I cycling circuit breaker?

A Type I circuit breaker automatically resets by cycling — it trips when current exceeds its rating, then automatically resets once the element cools, repeating this cycle until the overload is corrected or removed. This is different from a Type III manual reset breaker which stays tripped until manually reset.

How does this differ from the manual reset circuit breakers?

This breaker automatically cycles on and off until the fault is cleared, without any user intervention. The ACX1847 and ACX1848 manual reset breakers stay tripped until physically reset by the user. Auto reset is suited to accessories and fans where brief overloads are expected; manual reset is generally preferred for main battery protection.

How does this differ from the 30A ACX1864BL?

The ACX1868BL is rated at 50A compared to the ACX1864BL at 30A. Choose the 50A breaker for higher-draw circuits such as electric winches on lighter loads, dual fan setups, or any circuit drawing up to 50 amps.

What cable terminals suit the 10-32 studs?

The 10-32 thread accepts standard #10 ring terminals. Select ring terminals sized for your cable gauge with a #10 (approximately 3.5mm) hole.

Is this breaker weatherproof?

An IP rating is not specified in the supplier data for this SKU. Confirm with OEX if weatherproofing is a requirement for your installation location.
