Re: AD wiring

maybe this chart will help you choose wire size for current draw and circuit length. you can also run a high draw breaker somewhwere near the battery (so short unfused run), then from there to a strip of auto reset breakers which have a common feeder bar connected to that feed wire (of a wire gauge appropriate for the draw from ALL those auto rest breakers on the strip). the auto reset breakers can be purchased on a holder strip for ease of mounting and also this works well if you connect them all across the top with that common bar which is power feed from the high draw breaker.
the same idea can be used for a relay center where the power for the relays comes from auto reset breaker strip above. each relay gets a feed from the circuit breaker above it.
if that makes sense
