Newmar AC-1X Breaker Panel

Equip your vessel or RV with the reliable Newmar AC-IX breaker panel, designed to deliver precise control and protection for AC power systems sourced from shore power or onboard generators. This compact powerhouse ensures your electrical setup stays safe and efficient, even in demanding marine or recreational environments. With its thoughtful engineering, the AC-IX stands out by combining essential safeguards like reverse polarity detection and individual circuit monitoring, helping prevent costly downtime or hazards on the water or road.

Standout Features for Seamless Power Management

• Double-Pole Master Breaker: Rated at 30 amps, it safeguards both hot and neutral legs, with a clear power-on indicator light for instant status checks.
• Reverse Polarity Warning: A dedicated LED alerts you to wiring issues that could lead to shocks or equipment damage, giving peace of mind during hookups.
• Flexible Branch Circuits: Supports up to five single-pole breakers, with four pre-installed options—typically one 10A, two 15A, and one 20A—to handle common loads like lights, appliances, and outlets. Customize as needed for your specific setup.
• Individual ON Indicators: Each branch circuit features its own light, making it easy to spot active loads at a glance and troubleshoot without guesswork.
• Pre-Labeled for Convenience: Comes with a comprehensive LS-I label set covering typical onboard circuits, streamlining installation and maintenance.

Built for 115/230 VAC applications, the AC-IX thrives in real-world conditions where power fluctuations are common, offering durability that outlasts basic panels in harsh saltwater or dusty RV travels.

Compact Design Meets Practical Needs

The AC-IX's smart sizing makes it a favorite for space-conscious installations. Its overall dimensions of 5-1/4" x 7-1/2" (13.3 x 19.1 cm) fit neatly into tight consoles, while the cutout requires just 4" x 6" (10.2 x 15.2 cm). At a lightweight 2 lbs (0.9 kg), it's effortless to mount without adding unnecessary bulk.

For simpler setups, consider the related AC-II variant: a streamlined 30-amp master breaker option with overall size 5-1/4" x 3-3/4" (13.3 x 9.5 cm), cutout 4" x 2.5" (10.2 x 6.4 cm), and weight of 1 lb (0.5 kg). Both models prioritize safety and reliability from Newmar's proven lineup.

Why Integrate the AC-IX into Your Electrical System

Boat owners and RVers know power reliability isn't optional—it's essential for everything from running air conditioners to charging batteries. The AC-IX excels by minimizing nuisance trips from minor surges while providing robust protection against overloads. Its marine-grade construction resists corrosion, ensuring long-term performance in humid cabins or exposed engine rooms. Unlike generic panels, the intuitive layout reduces wiring errors during installs, and the visual indicators cut diagnostic time, keeping you focused on the adventure.

Pro tip: Pair it with proper grounding and surge protectors for optimal defense against shore power inconsistencies. Regular visual checks on breakers and lights help catch wear early, extending the panel's lifespan.
