Bob:



I was "surfing the net" the other day and came upon a  couple of sites that

sell ATC Circuit Breaker fuses.  They fit a standard fluse block that B & C

sells.  I found these quite interesting and pondered the question:



 if they are worth the investment (not a huge difference in cost between the

CB fuse and regular fuse)?



are they more robust and would they make a good substitute for fuselable

links?



and serve any "better" or improve upon the electric architecture than

standard fuses? - especially in your Z diagrams: Z-11, 12 and or 13?

  You can't get any simpler/more-reliable protection than the

  fuse. Breakers add moving parts in a device that will probably

  never be called upon to protect a wire but . . .
