Ensure your marine or RV electrical setup stays safe and reliable with the Newmar 15 Amp Double Pole Breaker featuring a sleek black throw handle. Designed for demanding environments, this breaker delivers precise circuit protection without compromise, making it a go-to choice for boat owners, RVers, and off-grid enthusiasts who prioritize performance and durability.

Superior Protection You Can Trust

Crafted with a magnetic-hydraulic "trip-free" mechanism, this breaker instantly detects overloads or short circuits and disconnects power automatically—every time, without the risk of manual override failure. Unlike basic thermal breakers, the hydraulic delay prevents nuisance trips from momentary surges, like those from starting motors or inverters, while still safeguarding against sustained faults. It's perfect for protecting dual-leg AC circuits in generators, shore power inlets, or high-draw DC loads such as thrusters and windlasses.

Universal Fit and Easy Integration

This double pole model slots seamlessly into Newmar electrical panels and most competing brands, thanks to its standard footprint. Rear #10 screw terminals simplify wiring, handling up to 65VDC or 277VAC for 15A ratings—ideal for 120/240V split-phase systems common in recreational vehicles and pleasure crafts. Note that for higher amp models in the series, check voltage compatibility to match your setup perfectly.

Key Specifications at a Glance

• Compact size fits tight panel spaces
• Mounting screws ordered separately for custom installs

Why Double Pole for Your Setup?

Double pole breakers like this one interrupt both hot legs simultaneously, essential for 240V appliances or balanced loads. In marine applications, it protects against ground faults across phases; in RVs, it handles air conditioners or microwaves without imbalance risks. Pair it with single pole options for finer circuit control—Newmar's lineup covers 5-50A to suit everything from LED lighting to heavy inverters.

Pro Tips for Installation and Longevity

Before mounting, verify panel bus bar spacing and torque terminals to spec for vibration resistance. In salty marine air, a light dielectric grease on contacts wards off corrosion. Regularly inspect the black handle for smooth action—its color contrasts sharply against panels for quick visual checks during surveys or troubleshooting. This breaker shines in custom builds, upgrades, or replacements where stock units fall short on reliability.

Versatile Options to Match Your Needs

Customize with red, white, or black handles for coding circuits by function (e.g., black for mains). Available in single pole (5-50A) or double pole (15-50A) to future-proof your panel. Always cross-reference voltage ratings: standard up to 30A handles broader AC/DC ranges, ensuring safe operation in 115V-neutral or line-to-line configs.
