    Slideout Fuse

    I am trying to carry spare fuses that is used in my RV and notice the Slideout Fuse are different.
    It says they are "Cole T1 12v30A 447". When I search for this exact name nothing comes up.
    Anyone knows what 447 is for?
    How often these fuse go bad?
    Has anyone replaced these with another brand?

    I think they're automotive circuit breakers, 30A.
    Auto parts store, Amazon should have them.

    For those with hydraulic slides, the circuit protection is an auto-resettable circuit breaker mounted under the OEM bus-bar terminals (my bus-bars are next to the hydraulic pump in the front storage compartment).

    But that begs the question: where is the fuse for my Swintek electric bedroom slideout. It's not in my distribution panel.

    The Swintek manual has this:

    "Checking FusesThe Lippert IN-WALL™ Slide-out requires a minimum of a 30-amp fuse. Check the 12-volt fuse box for blown fuses, and replace any if necessary. Consult the RV manufacturer's documentation for the location of the 12-volt fuse box, and the location of the IN-WALL™ Slide-out controller’s fuse."

    So where did GD hide the Swintek fuse?

    Steve,

    My schwintek controller is in the passthru and gets its power via 10 Awg wires from the front compartment.

    I'd guess your controller's wire is on one of the front compartment auto resetting circuit breakers.

    I misplaced where a photo of a 310-GK front compartment auto resetting CBs labeled.

    It never hurts to have a spare but these are modified, resetable circuit breakers. You should only need to cycle power to reset them. From Eaton / Bussman web page:
    http://www.cooperindustries.com/cont...glasstube.html

    "Type II - Modified Reset

    Type II circuit breakers will remain “tripped” by an internal resistor (in the OFF position) as long as the circuit is powered. Type II breakers can be reset by turning the circuit off, or by turning the ignition switch to the OFF position. These devices are sometimes called "non-cycling breakers."

    Slide 30A Circuit Breaker - Auto Reset

    After reading @Wicked ace's post, looks like I picked the wrong CB to order a few years ago.

    Thought I better try updating the info for @Papahoosh, @Juiceman

    Checking GD Parts Lookup > Electrical doesn't show the CB for my rig.

    GD Parts Lookup does have the 2020 Reflection 337RLS, 2020 Reflection 150 Series 295RL, 2019 Grand Design Reflection 150 series 260RD.
    These all show the CB to be:
    https://www.granddesignrv.com/owner-...ts/detail/4268 Part Name: BREAKER OPTIFUSE ACB2-PL-30A 30 AMP ATO TYPE PLUG-IN

    Looked up the Optifuse part:
    Optifuse: Type ACB2-PL Auto Reset Circuit Breaker Automotive Type I Plug-In Type https://www.optifuse.com/blog/BlogPDFs/ACB2-PL_RevC.pdf

    https://www.amazon.com/ACB2-PL-30A-2.../dp/B07HJJD6X7
    (x2) ACB2-PL-30A-2 | Optifuse Automotive Circuit Breaker w/Snap-Off Blades | 12VDC | 30A | Type I | Auto Reset | Bussmann Cross: UCB-30
    Brand Name Optifuse
    Color Green
    Model Number ACB2-PL-30A

    Cole Hersee is owned by Littelfuse now and Cole T1 12v30A looks to be 30409 ATO Circuit Breakers Series - Type I Automatic Reset

    Looked at my fuse panel and see I've got the Bussmann which looks to be same as the UCB-30.

    The fuse for your Swintek electric bedroom slideout may be behind the control panel. Just like they put the water pump fuse there too. You need to remove the panel to get to them. They are wired in line with the switch.
