is that an unnecessary redundancy? If it's not necessary, is there any
down side to having both, other than the additional minimal weight and cost?
Thanks for any input.

The whole idea behind the ANL is to get the alternator
b-lead out of the cockpit . . . and if it's out of the
cockpit, then ANL or equivalent devices for circuit
protection are called for. Breakers under the cowl
don't make much sense.
