Mercury – Quicksilver 83296930 30-Amp Fuse | Mercury Outboards & MerCruiser Sterndrives | 83296930

Overview

A blown fuse can stop you in your tracks, but replacing it shouldn’t be complicated. The Quicksilver 83296930 30-Amp Fuse is a marine-grade fuse designed to protect the electrical systems in Mercury outboards and MerCruiser sterndrives. It’s the same quality fuse used in Mercury’s factory installations — tough, reliable, and made to handle life on the water.

Built to meet SAE marine electrical standards, this 30-amp fuse protects sensitive components from overloads and short circuits while keeping your outboard or sterndrive’s systems running smoothly.

Key Features

• Purpose: Protects your electrical system from overloads and short circuits.
• Material: Made from marine-grade conductive alloy with corrosion-resistant terminals for long life.
• Performance: Rated for 30 amps, meeting SAE and marine safety standards for consistent, reliable protection.
• Design: Compact OEM-style fuse fits directly into Mercury and MerCruiser fuse panels and holders.
• Ease of Use / Install: Plug-and-go design installs in seconds with no tools required.

Engine & Boat Compatibility

• Fits many Mercury outboards and MerCruiser sterndrive engines using 30-amp circuit protection
• Commonly used in ignition, alternator, and accessory circuits

Performance & Real-World Benefits

The 83296930 fuse keeps your boat’s electrical system safe by stopping voltage spikes and short circuits before they damage key components. It’s tested for the tough marine environment — vibration, salt, and heat — and maintains solid conductivity through years of use.

Swapping a blown fuse is quick, but using a reliable one makes all the difference. Keep a few of these OEM fuses in your onboard kit so you’re ready if something pops while you’re out on the water.

Why Choose OEM

Mercury’s OEM fuses are tested and rated specifically for their marine electrical systems. Aftermarket versions can corrode faster, blow prematurely, or fail to meet amperage standards.

A genuine Quicksilver fuse guarantees the right fit, exact amperage rating, and corrosion resistance you can depend on — because even small parts should be built to last.
