NorTide pushbuttons with integrated circuit breaker 5 - 20Amp
This revolutionairy product completely changed the game in the world of (marine) pushbuttons. No longer do you need external fuses or circuitbreakers next to your panel or underneath your dashboard.
This unique NorTide product integrates both the switch and the circuit breaker within 1 compact and rigid housing.

How it works
When electrical current flows through a conductor (such as a wire), heat is created.
This state-of-the-art NorTide switch has a bimetallic strip inside the housing that expands as it heats up.
When the current exceeds a certain threshold (such as 10 amps), the bimetallic strip will expand beyond its normal shape and break the circuit, preventing current from flowing.
When the circuit is broken, current also flows to the electronics (such as your bilge pump). This means that the bilge pump is turned off, protecting the pump and wiring.
Because there is no more current flowing, the thermal fuse inside the switch will cool down and automatically reset itself.
