    Plenty of room for good connections.
    4 Stars
    Plenty of room for good connections.
    Before making this purchase I compared the different series specs on the Blue Sea Systems website and selected the 187 series because it had 5/16" terminals on the back as opposed to the 1/4" terminals on the 285 series because I already had plenty of 5/16" connections. If you need exact measurements for the other options I found complete information available on the manufacturers website.The print on the front does not appear to very durable as it was already a little worn before I removed it from the package, otherwise the quality appears to be great. The attached photo shows the wear on the word "Trip" and the bottom portion of the symbol below the word "ON". While I am disappointed that the print is so fragile that it was worn before removing from the package, ultimately the current amount of wear is very minor and has zero impact on the primary function of the breaker, as long as it does not wear away completely when put into use.There is plenty of room on the back of the breaker making connections possible from several angles if needed. I used standard 5/16" ring connectors, but it looks like there *might* be enough room for the wide 5/16" connectors if that is what you already have on hand.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Breaker for Inverters
    Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2022
    My wife needed an inverter for her work vehicle, that could power a centrifuge.
    So, after much research, I settled on the Blue Sea brand and this particular breaker because it can also serve as a power switch.
    You can feel the overall excellent quality of the breaker.
    The only con that is a little disappoint is the fact that the connection post nuts have no protective covers.
    Not a huge deal but I would have preferred nut covers. I improvised and used marine grade heat shrink on them.
    This was still the best option I could find either way.
    Would buy again.
