Multiquip 0601807454 Circuit Breaker DAW-500S - OEM Replacement Part for Welder Generators

This 2-pole, 25 amp main circuit breaker protects the AC power output circuits on Multiquip welder-generator units, serving as a critical safety component that disconnects power during overload conditions or emergency shutdown procedures. Located on the control panel, this breaker controls power to the GFCI duplex receptacle (120V, 20A) and twist-lock receptacle (125V, 20A), and must be placed in the OFF position during normal engine shutdown procedures before idling down.

The circuit breaker is a mandatory safety device designed to prevent overloading that can shorten equipment life and damage electrical components. According to Multiquip operational guidelines, the AC circuit breaker should be switched OFF before shutting down the engine to prevent low voltage and frequency issues caused by decreasing engine speed. This component is essential for protecting both the welder-generator and connected equipment from electrical damage, and should never be disconnected or bypassed as doing so will void all warranties and create serious safety hazards including risk of electrocution, electrical shock, or fire.
