Safety of a polarized DC breaker between the battery and the …
As OP says, circuit breakers have permanent magnets so the resulting magnetic force lengthens & cools the arc, and if the current is flowing in the ''wrong'' direction, it can damage the breaker. However, unless the current is really high, it does take the energy of an inductive load to start an arc, and in the case of the battery charger, the ...

Direction of DC breaker between battery and inverter
Usually, power in goes to + and power out goes to -. The polarized circuit breakers that I have use ++ and --. I don''t know if that is standard or not. If the circuit breaker is polarized and you have an inverter/charger, then you should NOT be using that breaker. Always post the exact model and specs of the devices in question, or links to …
The hope here is that an over-current protection device -- a fuse or circuit breaker -- will trip and open up the circuit, shutting down power before a major melt-down occurs. ... So, regardless of the battery type or chemistry you choose, the best advice here is to study the re-charging requirements found on a specification sheet specific to ...

Re: Circuit Breaker Orientation (Wiring) I think your underlying question is whether these circuit breakers are polarity sensitive; i.e. does it matter which way power flows through them. There are a couple of possible answers. First, the breaker that connects the Power Converter/Fuse Box to the Battery has power flowing in both directions.
