I replaced all three breakers for interior lighting last year due to failure. (One failed, but I replaced all three while I was at it.) Before the breaker failed, lights that were on that circuit would dim, then brighten, then dim, etc. This lasted a few weeks, then the lights stopped working. No issues since I replaced the breaker, which was not expensive.

Happens, especially when said breaker is used as a switch like we do on our boats. Circuit breakers (at least on aircraft)were never designed to be used as a switch.

Frost day puts our 3 week summer cruise, headed to the Rendezvous next weekend..I am having an electrical issue. Has anyone had a breaker wear out and not just stop working but, rather, begin to trip at a lower load than their original level?
