What is a "subpanel"?
A subpanel is a smaller electrical panel that is connected to the main electrical panel of a building. It is used to distribute electricity to a specific area or section of the building, such as a garage, basement, or an addition. A subpanel helps reduce the load on the main panel and provides easier access to circuit breakers for specific areas, making electrical management more efficient. It is typically connected by a power cable to the main panel and can contain its own set of breakers for controlling power in the designated area.
Example
The electrician installed a subpanel in the garage to make it easier to manage the electrical circuits for the new workshop.
The subpanel in the basement controls the lights and outlets for that floor of the house.
The house was recently renovated, and the electrician upgraded the subpanel to accommodate new appliances.
