A distribution board can also be known as a panel board or a breaker. It is an element of an electricity supply system, which will separate an electrical power feed into secondary circuits, whilst providing a protective fuse for each circuit in a regular enclosure.
The distribution board is a sheet metal fabricated enclosure that can be open, semi-closed or totally enclosed; designed to provide and control electric power to distribution systems via switches. There are two categories of boards:-
The main and most crucial part to any board and that is the fuse, as it doesn't allow for overcurrent's passing through the main circuit. It acts like a switch and shuts down the major electric supply from any danger to your home or office premises.
A well installed board should offer sufficient space for a range of wires and an easy installation. This distribution board will ensure the safe and long life of your electrical distribution.
