Most of us don’t really pay attention to our home’s electrical system until something goes wrong. New buyers, sellers, as well as homeowners who’ve been living at their house for a couple of years, don’t exactly examine the electrical system unless they know something isn’t working right.

Your home’s electrical panel is the gateway through which electricity travels through the mainlines, and into your circuits/appliances. These panels are fitted with fuses and circuit breakers to break the main circuit and prevent possible short-circuits, electrical fires, and other forms of electrical damage.
