I don't understand what you're saying here.

The Power Distribution Board is intended to be wired so that the red/power and black/return terminals for each breaker-protected branch circuit are adjacent, not opposite. Regardless, all of the black terminals are connected directly to the (-) battery terminal, and the breaker only interrupts current to the red terminal.
