Marine Electrical Panels & Circuit Breakers at Fisheries Supply


Fisheries Supply provides an extensive selection of marine electrical panels and circuit breakers that are specifically engineered to safeguard your boat's electrical system.

Understanding Marine Electrical Panels

Marine electrical panels are essential components of a boat's electrical system. They distribute electricity from the primary power source to various loads on board and provide switching and circuit protection from overload. The two basic categories of electrical panels are main distribution panels and sub-panels.

Main Distribution Panels

Main distribution panels contain the standard house load circuits and often provide an overall disconnect of some type and circuit protection to the electrical power feed. They may offer general monitoring of system voltage and load amperage, as well as reverse polarity of the AC feed for AC panels.

Sub Panels

Sub-panels are used for special circuits, such as large DC loads, emergency paralleling of battery banks, AC loads supplied only by shorepower or a gen-set, or for special functions such as metering or primary switching (i.e., switching between battery banks or between shorepower and gen-set AC power).

Choosing the Right Marine Electrical Panel

When selecting a boat electrical panel, consider the following factors:
  • Size and Configuration: Choose a panel that fits your boat's electrical needs and available space. Standard panels are flexible enough for simple installations, while custom panels can offer added features and design flexibility.
  • Power Source: Decide whether you need an AC, DC, or integrated DC and AC panel, depending on your boat's electrical system and power source.
  • Circuit Protection: Make sure the panel provides adequate circuit protection for your boat's electrical loads.
  • Monitoring and Indication: Look for panels that offer monitoring features, such as voltage, load amperage, and circuit status gauges.
  • Wear: Circuit breakers may deteriorate over time, resulting in decreased functionality or complete failure. Utilizing circuit breakers as ON/OFF switches can speed up this deterioration process.

Marine Circuit Breakers

Marine circuit breakers are actuated magnetically or thermally and can be reset after tripping, providing reliable protection for your boat's electrical circuits.

Marine Electrical Panels

Marine electrical panels come with precise amperage ratings and marine-grade construction, ensuring efficient power distribution and protection for your boat's electrical components.

Marine Breaker Panels

Marine circuit breaker panels are designed to protect your boat's electrical system from overload and catastrophic failure.

Complete Your Electrical System

Fisheries Supply also offers a range of marine-grade electrical panel boxes, switches, circuit breaker boxes, shunts, and meters, allowing you to complete your boat's electrical system.

A waterproof marine breaker box is essential for protecting electrical systems on boats, ensuring safety in wet environments. Along with a well-organized marine electrical panel box, it helps manage power distribution efficiently. For added protection, a boat circuit breaker is used to safeguard individual circuits from overloads, providing reliability and safety in marine electrical systems.
