Circuit Breaker for 14 V DC Truck Systems
The Bussmann CBC-50B is a 50 A automatic-reset circuit breaker built for 14 V DC truck electrical systems. It uses a plug-in surface mount with #10-32 stud terminals that accept ring terminals. The housing combines thermoplastic and metal and meets SAE J553 standards for heavy-duty circuit protection.
Replaces Blown Fuses in High-Current Circuits
This breaker replaces single-use blade or cartridge fuses in circuits up to 50 A where repeated over-current events occur. The jump is worth it when a fuse would otherwise need frequent replacement and the circuit can tolerate an automatic reset after the fault clears. It interrupts up to 1.5 kA at 14 V DC.
Holds 50 A Continuously with Automatic Reset
Under sustained load the device carries its full 50 A rating without nuisance tripping. When an over-current persists the breaker trips and then automatically resets once the condition is removed, restoring power without manual intervention. The 1.5 kA interrupt rating ensures safe opening during severe short-circuit events.

Questions about this item
What size stud terminal does the CBC-50B use for ring-terminal connections?
The breaker uses a #10-32 stud terminal for ring-terminal connections.
How does the automatic-reset function behave after a trip, and what mistake do installers make?
It resets itself once the fault clears; the common error is skipping root-cause diagnosis because the breaker appears to work again.
Which spec tells me when the breaker itself may need replacement?
The 1.5 kA interrupt rating at 14 V DC defines the fault limit; repeated trips near that level can degrade the contacts and require replacement.
