Circuit breakers - Tip
Posted: Thu Feb 01, 2018 8:19 pm
If you add a standard dual battery isolator use at least 220 150 amp circuit breakers.
I have had an issue in the last month where I left the fridge on with the car off for many days in a row. Battery was low and with 100 amp breakers they kept tripping.
The alternator on the auto is 220 110 amps and my second battery when very low will initially pull over 100 amps. Helps that I have cables run that are bigger than most jumper leads these day.
Just a simple tip.
