I am not sure who "they" is regarding to making breakers, but how about a fuse? You would need to make sure that your fuse had a sufficient voltage rating but this shouldn't be a problem. I just did a quick check from my favorite parts supplier and found a 5A, 500V fuse for $1.40 (USD).
I am sure that there are breakers in that rating range too, but they will be more expensive.
