I looked briefly at the blocks, and the center jumpers. I noticed that the center jumpers look a little bit like a fuse...although I found no mention in the AB documentation of current limits of the jumpers in my brief reading.
But I do like the power blocks, they make me feel better about offering some protection in case the small wires from the 120 amp breaker to the individual fuse panels accidently shorted. I noticed that the wiring on last years robot offered no protection for certain types of wiring problems, and I think the new distribution block could make it safer.
(I'm an ME, not an EE, so maybe someone could tell me if I'm on the right track?)
