Oops.  I erred.  There is no fuse on this unit.

Those are 1.5 amp voltage regulators, which means they can output
a max current of 1.5 amps.  Note the tall heat sinks.

Although this unit will see not that much current output.  Here it
powers a single op amp with only milliamps of current required.

Anyone who would believe that such a circuit posed a danger should
undergo a comprehensive neurological examination.

Fuse holders are readily avaiable that allow the easily installation
and replacement of fuses.

Circuit layouts do not have to be aeshetically pleasing.  They just have
to work and this circuit design is likely the best possible.
