Very easy to make a fuse board that plugs into APC.
I am looking at what it would take to add fusing to the surge protector.
Not a lot of room there. I would probably have to mount the components
on the back side and do a double pass through SMT placement and reflow.
It might have enough clearance for the jacks on one board to not scrape
off the fuses on the next board.
I'd prefer not having soldered on fuses for the surge suppressor because
that's a more expensive part to replace. Better to replace a cheap
add-on board or inline, especially if you make a stupid mistake that
blows it.
