Blue Sea Systems 8027 Traditional Metal Panel, AC Main + 6 Positions, 5-1/4 W x 7-1/2 H

Makes for a great install in camper or rc trailer. Fit and finish was great and breakers worked great for what they are intended. Template to cut out comes with it and makes install a breeze

I give the panel five stars.The panel is as described on the product description, and more: tough metal panel body; heavy, well separated power rails; quality breakers (and just as important, quality screws and recesses that hold tight to the panel/rails--more resistant to vibrating loose); tight, vibration and corrosion resistant wire to rail screws and posts--good stuff. I don't know if this panel is the best, but I don't know how one would make any substantial improvement to how or with what ease it functions without making it something else. Even on Amazon, it's not cheap and (thus, as often) it's not cheaply made. The central point where multiple AC circuits meet (and vibrate) and are controlled---on the WATER, with widely varying temperatures with inconsistent power supplied by the dock--is a [bold] very awful place to use a cheaply constructed control panel.The build quality is superb; this is true of the panel itself, the power rails, the breakers, screws, labels, everything. Realize that you get the main breaker and three 15 amp breakers to power independent circuits--not six breakers. Three slots are open (vacant) for additional breakers if you need them. If you don't, then don't take the tabs out and don't wire the indicator lights on those slots.INSTALLATION:Unless you know precisely what you are doing, seek a professional. The instruction manual gives the "basics," but that term is relative; Blue Sea must assume you know the most basic basics or you wouldn't be wiring AC on the water. I looked some things up online (and took some notes) before turning off (and locking up) the dock breaker--or even opening the package. Therefore, the instructions don't tell you anything about how to prepare a wire for installing on the breaker, how grounding works and why it must be right, how (specifically) to wire the indicator lights, how to cut out the area where it is to be installed--it only tells the size, etc.). The "manual" is no more than a sheet of laminated and neatly folded paper which says nothing about the basics of being an electrician (much less of being a boat electrician--different animal).If anything changes, I will *definitely* update this positive review. If you check my other reviews, I argue the flaws as I see them, and I do feel obliged to post candidly because I rely so much on others' posts in my decisions to buy.I can't find any flaws here, and it still costs less than my home security system.I hope this helps you.

The media could not be loaded. Nobody is going to say BlueSea circuit panels are inexpensive, but for durability, safety, and ease of setup, they are my go-to panel of choice. It’s easy to swap out the breakers from 15a to 20a if needed, and you can get custom labels printed. It’s super easy to add circuits and mount the panels.

A very well built panel with excellent instructions and labeling. Blue Seas always does a good job with their products and I have yet to be disappointed. Their AC Breaker Panel is a quality piece of hardware and the instructions are first rate. All the key connections on the panel are labeled to make connecting your wiring as foolproof as possible. The panel is a bit on the small side, great for fitting into your cabin, but it also makes for a tight fit when getting all the connections together. You need to spend some time carefully thinking about the order in which you make the wiring connections to the panel. All in all though, I was impressed with how easily everything went together. For reference, I am not a skilled electrician, just someone good at following instructions. I did have a far more skilled hand give a last check before closing up the panel.

Yes, this is expensive, but you get what you pay for. This thing is built like a tank and it looks sharp.

cheap. main breaker lugs in the back break very easy.not to 2024 or 2025 Nation Electric code.15 amp isn't even used as all had be changed to 20amp

Blue Seas has always been our go-to line for marine-quality electrical components, but we were disappointed this time. After installing it, we discovered the main 30-amp breaker doesn't work. It's too much trouble to remove and return it. Does anyone know where to buy a replacement breaker or how to reach out to Blue Seas?

This was easy to install and works as should. Package arrived on time and in perfect condition.
