Understanding Different Types of Electrical Panels
Electrical panels come in different types, each serving a specific purpose.
Main Breaker Panel: The Essential Safety Feature
The most common type of panel houses the main breaker, which can shut off all power to the property in case of an emergency and prevent dangerous electrical fires.
Fuse Box: An Older Yet Important Option
This older type of electrical panel uses fuses, rather than breakers, to protect against electrical overloads. When the current exceeds the fuse's rated capacity, the fuse melts or "blows," interrupting the electrical flow.
Main Lug Panels: A Vital Distribution Solution
These are typically used as distribution panels downstream of the main breaker panel, meaning electricity may be able to be turned off without actually entering the building. This can be a vital safety factor during a fire.
Subpanels: Powering Specific Areas Efficiently
These smaller electrical panels draw power from the main panel to distribute to a specific area. They are typically used in large properties where the main panel cannot accommodate all circuits.

The Signs Electric Panels Need Repair
