I put one in and it shut off about 3 hours later. When I went to press in the knob it would not allow me to press. I had to open a new one which was not defective. A waste of 10 dollars

Reasonable price and easy to install. I know these are an older type breaker. I’m so glad Home Depot still carries them!

It was an excellent choice. It was round and had threads that allowed it to be screwed in easily. Has a little white button to reset the internal breaker that I can reset when my toaster and microwave are running at the same time.

Elegant solution to older fuse boxes with wiring that is in good condition. Most of the older fuse boxes have fabric wiring and no neutral, so it is often better to replace the panel, wiring and install breakers. But for those that remain in good condition, this is a great solution.

    After replacing several 20 amps fuses, I decided to try the 20 amps type circuitbreaker, so far, it is working satisfactorily without blowing any more 20 ampsfuses, saving me a few dollars,and time to go Home Depot to purchase morefuses for my home air conditioner. Happy Home Depot customer, AdrianDiaz

    For Hank; Depending on the type of fuseholder; a 20 amp won't go in a 15 amp fuse holder. If this is a VERY old house with the original box, it would not matter, but a more recent (1950's) fuse box might have Type "S" fuse holders or adapters that won't accept a higher rated fuse, whereas the older type T or W socket would take any of them.

      Poor manufacturing quality controls. Wanted to replace all four fuses in my daughter's apartment. Of the four that I purchased, only two screwed in properly. The other two would not go in far enough to make contact, no matter which socket I tried.

        Excellent value-no need to buy additional fuses.Just reset and power back on.
        The ease of resetting the fuse (circut) w/o purchasing addtional fuses. Saves time and money.
