RE: Circuit breaker - Equipment protection fuse question.

NEC Article 100 - Branch Circuit Definition

A branch circuit is a portion of a wiring system that extends beyond the final, automatic overcurrent protective device (i.e., fuse or breaker) which qualifies for use as branch-circuit protection, and terminates at the utilization device or outlet (such as a lighting fixture, motor, or heater).

"beyond" not "including". The circuit breaker is the Code-required branch-circuit protection.

If you have a better source, please provide it. I do want to know if I am wrong about this.
