Jack inline fuse?

Happy wife / happy life · 01-03-2021, 06:55 PM

I have a 30 amp inline fuse for the power lift jack. In the past i have had trouble with fuse holder not making a good connection. I am wanting to replace it with a 30 amp resettable circuit breaker. Does anyone see a problem with that idea? Thank you a head of time for any input!

What type of inline fuse holder is it? Twist on with glass fuse or one where fuse pushes into holder.

Screw together w/glass fuse.

Lots of people use auto resetting circuit breakers. There a few different styles people use.

Check out the 30 amp inline circuit breaker resettable fuse on Amazon. May or may not meet your need.

I am looking to use a marine grade ( water proof cover ) all connections will be soldiered and shrink wrapped.

I believe description says waterproof if I am not mistaken.

I had the same problem as you, intermittent fuse connection at the jack. Applied a little dielectric grease and no problems for 5 years now and only posting this for others as you have solved your problem quite effectively.
