## Overview

The Blue Sea Systems 285-Series Circuit Breaker is a medium-duty, surface-mount breaker designed as a drop-in replacement for the 185-Series. It features a visible reset lever for easy fault detection, a trip-free design that prevents holding the breaker ON during faults, and supports up to 48V DC with a 3000A interrupt capacity. Ignition protected and water resistant, it’s ideal for marine and industrial applications, offering safe, reliable circuit protection with easy installation via 1/4" ring terminals and protective terminal caps.

## Description

Circuit protection and switch combined in a single medium duty breaker. Ideal for windlass and electric winch applications, these surface mounted medium duty circuit breakers function as a switch, but also provide tailored circuit protection. A visible lever shows when the breaker has tripped and cannot be held in the ON position if a fault is detected. Ignition protected and water resistant, they can be installed almost anywhere; including the engine room of gasoline powered boats. Connected terminal caps protect terminals from accidental contact and help to prevent cross current shorts. Terminal studs are located on the face of the circuit breaker for easy installation.
