Circuit Breakers

A circuit breaker is an electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overcurrent/overload or short circuit. At Farnsworth Electronics we carry the NTE line of Thermal Circuit Breakers that are available in both panel mount R58 series and Fuse Holder cartridge types R59 series.They contain a visual trip indicator, a push button to reset breaker and 0.250 inch quick connect terminals.
The R58 series comprise single pole, thermal type circuit breakers that feature a recessed reset button which cannot be manually pulled out to disconnect the circuit. The R59 series represent convenient, inexpensive alternatives to twist cap, panel mounted fuse holders and glass cartridge fuses.
When an overload occurs and the breaker opens, the reset button and an indicator extend for visual trip indication.A trip free feature allows the contacts to open even if the reset button is held in manually against an over-load.NTE thermal circuit breakers are available with ratings from .25 amps to 30 amps.​
NEW R185 series is a type III manual reset with Push-to-Trip Switch and is rated for 25A to 150A.​
