Switchboard

Switchboard, also known as a distribution box, is an electrical device used to distribute electrical power from the main power source to individual circuits within a building or industrial facility. The distribution board contains circuit breakers, fuses, relays, switches, and other protective and control elements that ensure the safe and efficient management of electrical current.

Distribution boards are essential for the safe and reliable operation of electrical systems in homes, commercial buildings, and industrial halls.
