Review on πŸ’‘ Enhanced Protection for Your Electrical System with Bussmann BP MB 20 Circuit Breaker by Tony Reid

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great alternative and money saver BUT

These are good solutions but not for nearby circuits. it worked, and I realized that 20 wasn't overboard (and no more than 15 amps, but close). It took a day longer to shut down, but it still got almost as hot and eventually worked, despite being around 15 amps. So it's not just about proximity, but anywhere else (e.g. within 5 amps) they get very hot and eventually burn out. Went back to the fuses first 20 and then 15. None of them are blown and just getting a little warm. There is a downside with these. Good on under-capacity circuits, but not on near-capacity circuits (but not over-capacity)

Pros
  • Resets on overload
Cons
  • Unsafe
