It protects your wiring from overloads and shorts, and the switchable reset lets it double as an on\/off switch at the panel. IP67 sealed for spray, rain, and washdown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sea-Dog SD-17 is a 50 amp resettable thermal circuit breaker built to protect the wiring and gear on your boat from overloads and dead shorts. It's rated for 48 volt DC service, so it drops into everything from a 12 volt accessory circuit up through a 48 volt trolling motor bank. If a circuit pulls more current than it should, the breaker trips before your wiring cooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat we like about the SD series is the switchable reset. This isn't a set-and-forget breaker buried behind a panel. You can flip it off by hand to kill a circuit, then flip it back on when you're ready. That means it doubles as a panel switch and a breaker in one spot, which saves room at the helm and keeps your wiring simpler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe housing carries an IP67 protection rating, so it shrugs off spray, rain, and washdown without complaint. Good thing on an open console or in a wet bilge. The body is molded plastic in black, and it panel-mounts into a standard cutout on a breaker panel, console, or dash. Two 1\/4 inch-28 stud terminals take ring terminals and torque down clean, so you get a solid connection that won't back out with vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one meets the standards that matter on the water. ABYC E-11 for AC and DC electrical systems, UL1077 for supplementary protectors, plus SAE J1171 and J1625. If you're wiring to survey or you just want to do it right the first time, those markings tell you the part was built for marine duty, not pulled off an automotive shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing is straightforward. A 50 amp breaker protects wire rated to carry at least 50 amps, so match it to your conductor gauge and the load. It's a common size for windlasses, larger pumps, inverters, electronics sub-panels, and 48 volt motor feeds. If you're not sure what amperage your circuit needs, size the breaker to the wire, not the other way around. And if you want a hand matching it to your setup, give us a call.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e50 amp thermal trip protects your wiring and gear from overloads and dead shorts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for 48 volt DC service, so it works on 12V, 24V, 36V, and 48V circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP67 sealed housing shrugs off spray, rain, and washdown\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManual switchable reset lets it double as an on\/off switch right at the panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch-28 stud terminals accept ring terminals for a clean, vibration-proof connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePanel-mount body drops into a standard breaker panel, console, or dash cutout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ABYC E-11, UL1077, SAE J1171, and SAE J1625 marine standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMolded black plastic housing built for the wet, corrosive marine environment\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 Sea-Dog 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\u003eWhat does the 50 amp rating mean for my wiring?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe breaker trips when current climbs past 50 amps, protecting the circuit before the wire overheats.
