I'm trying to find a replacement for the narrow 23mm 32A 2-pole GE EPC452 breakers in my 2014 SO469. The originals keep failing, and I can't get them anymore. Has anyone found a good alternative that fits in the tight space? Thanks for any help!
 
It's a bit tricky to find replacements for discontinued narrow breakers but I know a few who had success with thin series breakers from brands like Siemens and even newer GE THQP models.
They're not exactly 23mm but they are compact and they often fit.
If you consider this, make sure to double-check the exact dimensions and mounting style compatibility with your panel.

Finding a 23mm wide 2-pole 32A breaker is indeed tough!

Try Blue Sea Systems, Carling, or Eaton marine/compact industrial lines.
Double check actual dimensions. even slight differences matter in tight panels.
Verify if it's AC or DC.
You might need to open up the panel to see if there's any hidden space to swap for a slightly wider, more common breaker. Good luck!
 
Totally agree, hunting down a skinny 23mm, 2-pole, 32A breaker can be a pain. The DZ47-63 C32 is small, but might not fit your panel. Yep, Blue Sea Systems, Carling, and Eaton have boat breakers, but double-check they work with what you've got
