What are the clearance requirements for an enclosed breaker? Does it have to follow the requirements of a panel? What about accessibility? Does is need to be accessible or readily accessible?

Example: Can you install a breaker behind a kitchen appliance (stove), or install it inside the kitchen counter?
 
If it is the branch circuit overcurrent protection it needs ready access and 110.26 clearances.

If it is supplemental protection it doesn't need ready access or 110.26 clearances.
