CKT Breakers
Dick Koehler's hints on mounting circuit beakers brought up something I wanted to put out to this forum. Resettable ( automatic) fuses where no panel space is required and can be build right into the terminal strip. The "fuse" is a PPTC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resettable_fuse . It comes in a wide variety of values
and looks like this for our purposes : it does come in other configurations and commonly SMD. For circuit boards
It can be added to a terminal block via severing the connection between the mounting screws placing the fuse in series with the ckt.
Consider the zero panel space, and ease of hookup and no jumble of wires.
