Default FYI: Circuit Breaker Safety Recall

Waste of switches. Breakers make fine switches. Don't know where
Larry is coming from on this one (as usual). The problem with the
T1 breaker is it is not idiot proof. If you hold the breaker in the on
position it holds the circuit closed rather then interrupting again like a
normal magnetic breaker will. I believe that the older thermal breakers
always behaved this way but I'm not sure. In any case, only a moron
would hold a breaker closed, but then again there seems to be an
unlimited supply of morons on boats these days

Mine doesn't. All loads are switched or controlled by other than the

circuit
breakers.
