What's the purpose of the second breaker?
Do yourself a favor and replace both with Bussmann Hi-Amp with same ratings.
Good point time 2 roll
I have seen that clicker type breaker go into melt down and take out wiring harnesses. When a fault happens the breaker heats a metal strip and the contact tips pop open. It cools and pops closed only to quickly heat up and pop open. Eventually the tips weld and wires go into melt down. Can't beat the manually resettable. They use them all over.... because they are cheap
