Video Transcript for Derale Automatic Resetting Circuit Breaker Feature Review

Today we're gonna take a quick look at the Derale Automatic Resetting Circuit Breaker. Now, this is going to be a connection point between your accessory and your battery to make sure that you don't overload your system. It's gonna be rated at 25 amps, and basically this is just going to have a connection in between, so whenever this gets overloaded that pin will come up and break the connection. Whenever it has basically cooled down, or reset, it'll come back down and make connection.This is going to be a lot easier and more efficient than using a fuse holder that you have to constantly replace the burned out fuses. There is no real need to replace this since it'll automatically reset itself. We'll have two terminals for this.

One that's gonna be copper, and one that's silver. You can make your connections there. It does come with the nuts and star washers that are attached to those, so you can make sure that your ring terminals are nice and secure, and that they don't move around.Our silver post is going to be labeled AUX, or auxiliary. Our copper post is gonna be labeled BAT, or battery. The copper end will be connected directly to our battery.

Our silver post will be connected to our accessory. Now, we'll have our two mounting holes on the bottom, so we can get this attached to a secure place inside our engine bay. The one thing to note here is that you want to make sure you have enough clearance, so that the terminals don't touch anything that's metal, so whenever you close the hood you want to make sure that this isn't gonna come in contact with that and causes issues, or damage.Now as far as dimension, going from the edge of our bracket here to the other side is about 2" long. In the other direction, it's about 3/4" wide, and about 1 3/8" tall. That's how much space you'll have.

I'd give yourself at least 1 1/2" really to make sure that you have clearance at minimum. The spacing between our terminals center to center is just under 3/4". Our spacing between those two mounting holes center to center is about 1 5/8 of an inch apart. The diameter on those holes is about 3/8 of an inch, so any 3/8" hardware should work, whether that's a self tapping screw, or a bolt and nut.Now, the hardware for that is not included. You will have to pick that up on your own, along with any wire, or ring terminals that you might need.

But, we have a lot of options here at etrailer.com if you need to pick any of that up.That's gonna do it for our look at the Derale Automatic Resetting Circuit Breaker rated at 25 amps.
