Subject: Design for Circuit Breakers & Fuses?

Hello LML gang,

 

I’m looking for opinions on the use of circuit breakers and/or fuses in our Legacy under construction.  There’s not a lot of panel space in the Legacy and I’d rather not take up room on the panel with a bunch of breakers if the benefits are marginal.  I have made a remote circuit breaker panel as a potential solution – though, I’m starting to lean toward just remote fusing much of the circuits with a few breakers or switch/breakers on the panel for some high load components (eg. Hydraulic pump).  I also understand there are some self resetting electronic breakers that might be useful.

 

I’d appreciate some advice and commentary on this subject from the community.

 

Thanks,

 

Valin Thorn
