It serves as the primary safety disconnect between the boat's battery bank and the windlass motor, tripping automatically if current draw exceeds its 50 amp rating to prevent wiring damage or motor burnout. Installed in the power supply line to the windlass, it also functions as a manual on\/off switch for isolating the windlass circuit during maintenance or storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 50A breaker is sized specifically for a defined set of Lewmar windlass models: Pro-Sport\/Pro-Fish 700W, CPX2\/V2 24V, C3 24V, VX1 300, VX2\/RX2 24V, and HX1 500. Matching the breaker's amperage to the correct windlass model is essential, since an undersized breaker will trip under normal load and an oversized breaker will not adequately protect the motor and wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lewmar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 68000348\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Circuit Breaker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmperage Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 Amp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Windlass Models:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pro-Sport\/Pro-Fish 700W, CPX2\/V2 24V, C3 24V, VX1 300, VX2\/RX2 24V, HX1 500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePro-Sport\/Pro-Fish 700W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCPX2\/V2 24V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC3 24V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVX1 300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVX2\/RX2 24V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHX1 500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat amperage is the Lewmar 68000348 circuit breaker rated for?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar Circuit Breaker 68000348 is rated for 50 amps.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Lewmar windlass models does this circuit breaker fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e This 50 amp breaker (part number 68000348) is sized for the Pro-Sport\/Pro-Fish 700W, CPX2\/V2 24V, C3 24V, VX1 300, VX2\/RX2 24V, and HX1 500 windlass models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Lewmar 68000348 circuit breaker weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e It weighs 0.3 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does this circuit breaker do for my windlass?\u003c\/strong\u003e It protects the windlass motor and wiring by breaking the circuit if current draw exceeds 50 amps, and it can also be used to manually disconnect power to the windlass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use the 68000348 breaker on a windlass model not listed in its fitment?\u003c\/strong\u003e No. The Lewmar 68000348 50 amp breaker is matched specifically to the Pro-Sport\/Pro-Fish 700W, CPX2\/V2 24V, C3 24V, VX1 300, VX2\/RX2 24V, and HX1 500 models; using it on an unlisted model risks incorrect overcurrent protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this circuit breaker resettable or does it need replacing after it trips?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Lewmar 68000348 is a circuit breaker, which is resettable after tripping, unlike a one-time-use fuse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere does the 68000348 breaker install in the windlass wiring?\u003c\/strong\u003e It installs in the power supply line between the battery and the windlass motor, acting as both overcurrent protection and a manual disconnect switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat voltage systems is the Lewmar 68000348 used on?\u003c\/strong\u003e Its listed fitment includes both 12V and 24V Lewmar windlass models, including CPX2\/V2, C3, VX2\/RX2, and HX1 500, so it is used across those specific voltage configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 50 amp rating apply to a specific windlass motor size?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the 50 amp rating on part number 68000348 corresponds to the current draw of the Pro-Sport\/Pro-Fish 700W and related windlass models listed in its fitment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Lewmar 68000348 a genuine Lewmar part?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, 68000348 is the Lewmar manufacturer part number for this 50 amp circuit breaker.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lewmar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49025138295003,"sku":"LEW-68000348","price":132.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/i_26b7e60a-dd9c-4854-ae69-83cc61561ab3.png?v=1785349683","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/lewmar-circuit-breaker-50a-for-pro-sport-pro-fish-700w-cpx2-v2-24v-c3-24v-vx1-300-vx2-rx2-24v-hx1-500-windlasses","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
