Installing a new Jabsco head. Current head has a (I think) 60 amp breaker and correspondingly large capacity wire (battery cable size). New unit calls for a 25 amp breaker and 8 gauge wire. Need to find a 25 amp breaker switch to match current switches in panel.
Thanks greatly for any help , advice or direction!

Found them at Great Lakes Skipper. Current breaker has wire direct from battery. I am planning on changing power source to main switch on panel. Any info on amp capacity of mains?

Again, thank you!
