This is a problem I have come up against many times in the same document - either sichern or absichern.
protected, maybe surge-protected? protected from short circuit? dunno
"Diese Einzelverbraucher werden über die in der Powerbox installierten Neozed-Lasttrennschalter oder Leitungsschutzschalter mit Stecksockelsystem (z.B. ABB Smissline) abgesichert."
MY version:
Users are protected over the neozed circuit breaker in the powerbox or over a line circuit breaker with plug-in system (e.g. ABB Smissline).

fused/protected
It literally means 'fused', but protected sounds better in some sentences.

Note from asker:
| Yes, I don't think/am not sure if we used "fused" in this context. (Users are fused?) sounds wrong here .. |
