Bussmann CB212-25 Automotive Circuit Breaker 25A 12V

SKU CH-C4YV-2234X

Protects 12 V DC circuits with a 25 A plug-in breaker that resets automatically and fits ATM mini-fuse sockets

  • 25 A continuous protection for 12 V DC circuits
  • Modified reset restores power without replacing the breaker
  • 225 A interrupt rating at 14 V DC handles severe faults
  • SAE J553 compliant design meets automotive safety standards
  • Thermoplastic body with silver cover resists heat and vibration

Automotive Circuit Breaker 25 A

The Bussmann CB212-25 is a 25 A automotive circuit breaker designed for 12 V DC vehicle electrical systems. It fits directly into an ATM mini fuse connector for plug-in mounting. The thermoplastic body with a silver metal cover provides durability in harsh under-hood conditions. It suits technicians and owners protecting accessory circuits in cars, trucks or recreational vehicles.

SAE J553 Standard Limits

The breaker meets SAE J553 and carries a 225 A interrupt rating at 14 V DC. It is rated for 25 A continuous current at 12 V DC only. Circuits exceeding this voltage or current require a different protection device. The modified reset function means the breaker does not automatically restore power after a fault.

Plug-In Installation Notes

Installation is a simple push into the existing ATM fuse block; no tools or wiring changes are needed. The compact size of 0.25 in height, 0.5 in width and 0.25 in depth fits tight fuse panels. A common issue is selecting the wrong amperage for the load, which causes nuisance trips or inadequate protection. Ensure the circuit current matches the 25 A rating before fitting.
