1. A wiring unit comprising:
a plurality of power supply blocks each comprising:
a block main body that includes a first insertion port for inserting a power supply terminal and a first fuse terminal insertion port for inserting a first fuse terminal of a fuse that includes the first fuse terminal and a second fuse terminal;
a conductive first conduction member that is held inside the block main body and is configured to be electrically connected to the power supply terminal; and
a conductive second conduction member that is held inside the block main body, is electrically connected to the first conduction member inside the block main body, and is configured to be electrically connected to the first fuse terminal; and
at least the same number of first coupling blocks as the fuses, the first coupling blocks each comprising:
a first coupling block main body including a second fuse terminal insertion port for inserting the second fuse terminal of the fuse; and
a conductive third conduction member that is held inside the first coupling block main body,
wherein the second fuse terminal inserted into the second fuse terminal insertion port is electrically connected to the third conduction member,
first fuse terminals of different fuses are respectively inserted into the first fuse terminal insertion ports of different power supply blocks, and
second fuse terminals of different fuses are respectively inserted into the second fuse terminal insertion ports of different first coupling blocks.
