Depends on the size of wire going to your terminal block from the battery. It should be 4 guage smaller than the feed wire. If your terminal was only a short distance from the battery (12" or so), I might forgo the link.

However, each power lead from that terminal block should be individually fused as close to the block as possible to protect the whole length of wire and the remainder of the circuit after the fuse. That's where having one of those fused terminal blocks is a good idea. Plus it looks neater, keeping all your fuses and wiring organized.
