Gentlemen (and ladies),
The circuit breaker was designed for switching DC loads under the hood of a vehicle or boat. It is intended for switching loads on and off. The internal design of the breaker is large electrical contact points attached to a bimetal plate that is pushed into position when the lever is actuated. Unlike load center breakers that have latches that wear with use, this breaker incorporates a design with little wear.
