Oh sorry i was incorect with my diagram. You only need FUSE on the + (positive) from the power supply. You do not need af use on GND (-) negative side.

I did not notice when I answered before that half of the terminals were connected to GND.

Here is revised image. You only need 2 fuses, not 4.

does it matter were the black wire goe on the terminal ?
It's best to place the feed wire in the center of the input side of the terminal block. That way the power draw should be balanced.

the fusebox had 2 red wires . does bolt need to be connected + terminals
The red wires go to the +5v lugs of the converter.

i notest the converter has no fuse inside
I think I see on on the right side right behind the +5vdc connection lugs.

Wrong Converter? the onse with 40 amps has 3 outlets .is this a mis conversation from us
This one should work nicely for you. You simply have more amps available (40 versus 20) and an extra set of +5 vdc connection lugs. you can add a third circuit opposed to the two we have been talking about. You could place another two terminal blocks (one positive and one negative) to add more devices if needed.

Make sure your main power input selector switch on the side of the converter is set to 220v for your country's voltage.

Thanks for the offer. It's very kind of you. However i have way too many extra parts floating around from projects over the years. Hang on to them. The way you build I'm sure you will use them in the next super robot you make.
