Don,

If you have your sidings directly connected to AIU channels, that's not a very good thing to do.

AIU relays have a 4 amp limit. A load or a short-circuit that draws more than 4 amps and less than the 10 or so amps where a circuit breaker or fuse is intended as protection, can destroy an AIU relay.
