Distribution boxes are commonly used in residential and commercial electrical systems. Also known as a distribution board, it’s responsible for distributing the electrical power throughout the home or building with which it’s used.
Distribution boxes work by distributing electrical power. They receive electrical power from the main power line — or another primary power line — and they distribute it via outlets.
With a distribution box, circuits won’t be overloaded. Circuits, of course, can only support so much electrical power. If a circuit is overloaded with too much electrical power, it will create a fire hazard. Distribution boxes work by distributing electrical power while simultaneously protecting circuits from being overloaded.
