Wacker Neuson 5000164429 Circuit Breaker 23A With Switch

The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Circuit Breaker 23A With Switch designed for the GP5600A and GPS5600A series portable generators. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM component, part is manufactured to the exact electrical specifications of the original, ensuring correct amperage rating and switch actuation. This breaker fits across the full GP5600A and GPS5600A generator lineup, covering standard, wheel kit, electric start, CARB GFI, CSA, and EPA-compliant configurations. When your generator's overload protection or output switching needs servicing, replacing it with the correct OEM part keeps the unit operating as intended.

Key Features

• Correct 23A Rating: — Matched to the generator's electrical load capacity, ensuring the breaker trips at the right threshold to protect the machine and connected equipment.
• Integrated On/Off Switch: — The built-in switch allows operators to manually control output circuits, combining overload protection and switching into a single serviceable unit.
• Genuine OEM Component: — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same electrical tolerances and contact materials as the unit installed at the factory.
• Broad GP5600A and GPS5600A Compatibility: — Fits standard, wheel kit, electric start, GFI, CARB, CSA, and EPA variants across both the GP5600A and GPS5600A generator families.
• Drop-In Electrical Fit: — Designed to match the original mounting footprint and terminal configuration, so the replacement installs directly without rework to the panel or wiring harness.
• Overload Protection Restored: — A worn or tripped-and-damaged breaker can leave output circuits unprotected or prevent the generator from supplying power; this replacement restores full protective function.

A circuit breaker is the generator's primary overload protection device, monitoring current draw on the output circuit and interrupting power if the load exceeds the rated amperage. On the GP5600A and GPS5600A, the breaker also incorporates a manual switch, giving the operator direct control over the outlet circuit. When a breaker fails to reset, trips repeatedly under normal loads, or its switch becomes unreliable, output power to connected tools and equipment is compromised — and the generator's internal wiring is left without proper protection until the part is replaced.
