Default Buried Electrical connections

Just out of curiosity... can you not use a fuse connector block in a

do the new standards not allow this?

No, I don't think so.

How would I try, or even want, to bury this "arrangement" under plaster.
How would I replace the fuse. How would the screw connections, wrapped
over with copious layers of insulating tape hold up over time.
Inaccessible except by chipping walls away after the fire.

Bad advice is worse than no advice.
