Your electrical panel, also known as the fuse box, fuse panel, or breaker box, is the central hub of your home's entire electrical system. It distributes power from your electric provider and controls the flow of electricity to every part of your home.

Given the high level of power it manages, working on an electrical panel can be extremely dangerous. Only licensed electrical contractors should handle any repairs or replacements.
