Rocker switch/breaker

[chrishscorp]

I have had a look online for some rocker switch style breakers ( hopefully different amperages available ), not really found anything suitable yet. Was thinking of having a sheet of steel and having it etched with boat name, a line drawing on boat and LEDs that light up on it showing which nav lights are on then some cut outs down the side for the rocker/breakers anyone else gone down ths route and found suitable parts I would be very interested in hearing.

Look for something from Carling or ETA, Google will turn up several options.

Although not a breaker version, I can recommend Carling switches, well made, a good range of legends and various mounting plates or modules available from Ebay, Amazon and Carling to make a really neat installation.

None of these incorporate circuit breakers. Here are some that do.

No, I missed that in the OP for some reason. Might be easiest to buy a cheapish panel and cannibalise it.

Forgot to say I have also bought this switch set with its own MCB for a future project when the helm loses the 80's style switches as gauges.

Worth looking here axoncontrol.co.uk rather than making your own. Huge range, mostly with Carling switches, either breakers or fused and ready made mimic panels.

Axon have been around for a long, long time, good company. Most of their panels use Carling components, make sure you choose ones that do.
