What Is an Electrical Panel?
Also referred to as a circuit breaker panel, an electrical panel is a critical component of your home’s electrical system, serving as the central hub for controlling and distributing your power supply.
Within the electrical panel is a set of circuit breakers responsible for protecting specific electrical circuits throughout your home. When a circuit becomes overloaded, the circuit breaker will trip to cut off the power supply to the affected circuit and prevent damage to your electrical system.
Older homes in Maryland and Delaware may rely on a fuse box instead. This outdated technology uses fuses rather than circuit breakers, which, when blown, need to be replaced to restore power.
For this reason, fuse boxes are less cost-effective than service panels and more prone to electrical fires and other safety hazards.
