Please have a look at page 11-47 of the
FAA part 43 (http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgAdvisoryCircular.nsf/8e17c23e2f26e8018625726d006ce776/99c827db9baac81b86256b4500596c4e/$FILE/Chapter%2011.pdf)

Cessna use a self resetting thermal CB under the panel of the C152 to control voltage on the field wire.

I can't post any links yet, but ah yep, now I'm seeing which ones are thermal and which ones aren't.
