    The main difference between a PLB and an EPIRB is the EPIRB has to be waterproof and float.
    EPIRBs are generally much larger than a PLB.

    Know some epirbs get set off if they get dunked in water as well, safety feature in case your boat goes over and ou don't get the time to grab it. Think this is what is in planes as well but there's are set off by a large 'bump' plenty of aviators that could correct me
