What type of breaker?

Postby ck36 » April 20th, 2026, 12:16 pm

I'm trying to determine what type of breaker originally was used on this panel for the windlass. At some point it was changed over to a 135 amp Bussman surface mount breaker. I'm replacing the inverter and other components and have very limited space to mount everything so I'd like to find a breaker that fits back in the original space.

If you have or had a Maxwell freedom 500 windlass or such it may have been one of those big red mushroom shaped button/breaker isolator switches.
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.

Thanks, that info led me to what used to be there, but unfortunately it doesn't look like a style of breaker that Maxwell uses anymore or anyone else makes.
