[RE-wrenches] circuit breaker for SW5548

[Ray Walters]

Try Mouser electronics.  Otherwise, I'd consider bypassing it, and have 
a regular breaker (30 or 40 amp) on theout put.
The tripping was probably because the breaker was malfunctioning. 
Usually the SWs will trip their on board computer to shutdown for over 
current, and the breaker should never be used. The 5548s were kind of 
weird though.  I never liked those.  I've had SW4048s out surge the 
5548s hands down.
