Panel Switches

[M Simpson]

Anyone know where I can get these panel switches? Have a couple I want to replace on the fly bridge, until I can get new panels made.

Big point is they are not just "switches" they are circuit breakers so you need to know what the present size is and replace with the same amp rating, never larger.

New Wire Marine is another source.

However, if you want save a few bucks, you could either sand/paint or cover it with a vinyl wrap. You can even get vinyl wrap that looks like brushed aluminum. You can get stick-on labels in sets (check out BlueSeas) or you could have a local sign/graphic shop make the labels for you.

Thanks Guys...Yes, I know they are breakers, sorry. Just used to calling them switches. I'm just looking for a drop in replacement for now, because I have a couple that have been exposed on the fly bridge for a long time and they don't latch very well. I do plan to have the salon breaker panel and fly bridge panels remade over the winter, with new gauges, wiring and breakers. and *gasp* a cover. Thanks Jim...I think that's the style I need. I'll double check the amperages this afternoon when I get down there.

Funny, you said "panel SWITCHES" and I still read it as though you were looking for a new panel!

This is a late reply but I hope still helpful. The Blue Sea Systems Series A breakers are a perfect drop-in replacement for the old Airpax breakers that it looks like you have. You'll need new mounting screws (#6-32 thread).

Defender appears to have best price on those. Around $18 regardless of ampage.
