What is a "fuse box"?
A fuse box is a safety device in a building's electrical system that contains fuses to protect circuits from overloading or short-circuiting. It is where the main electrical connections are made and distributes electricity to different parts of the building. The fuses inside the box act as protective switches, automatically cutting off the power to a circuit if it becomes overloaded, preventing damage or fire. The fuse box is typically located in a central area of the home, such as a basement or utility room, and is crucial for maintaining electrical safety.
Example
The electrician had to replace the blown fuse in the fuse box to restore power to the kitchen.
If the power goes out in part of the house, check the fuse box to see if a fuse needs replacing.
The fuse box was installed in the basement to keep it out of the way of everyday activities.
