It fits standard panels built for A-Series and C-Series magnetic-hydraulic breakers, carries a UL 1077 listing, and handles a 5kA interrupt so it can protect circuits fed by big paralleled battery banks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Egis A Series 3202-20 is a panel-mount circuit breaker built for the kind of AC and DC work you run into on a boat. It's a dual-pole, 20-amp breaker with a clean white toggle, and it drops into any standard panel that accepts A-Series or C-Series magnetic-hydraulic breakers. Mounting screws come in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes it worth the money is the interrupt rating. At 5kA on 277 Vac and 1.5kA on 80 Vdc, it can safely clear a fault even when it's wired to a large paralleled battery bank with a lot of available power. That's the scenario where a cheaper breaker gets you in trouble. It's UL 1077 listed and rated for 6,000 cycles at full current, so it'll switch for years without losing its bite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStainless steel self-locking hardware keeps the terminals tight through vibration and temperature swings. And Egis backs it with a 4-year warranty. If you're building or refitting an AC distribution panel and want over-current protection you don't have to think about again, this is a solid pick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20-amp continuous current rating with a dual-pole design, so it switches both sides of an AC circuit at once\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated to 277 Vac \/ 80 Vdc, meaning the same breaker handles shore-power AC and DC battery circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5kA interrupt capacity at 277 Vac (1.5kA at 80 Vdc) protects circuits tied to large paralleled battery banks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUL 1077 listed and tested to 6,000 cycles at rated current for long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStainless steel self-locking hardware and included mounting screws for a secure install that holds up to vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Egis Mobile Electronics reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eCan the 3202-20 be used on both AC and DC circuits?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes.
