Today we are going to cover how to find your electrical panel. This is very important when you are doing any repair or instillation work to insure that you are safe. Now this first picture is what you will be looking for.
This panel can be found in the garage or outside the house, if not found in these locations check in a closet or under the stairs. For the second picture it is showing how to turn off a specific breaker. Each breaker is responsible for its own power in the house, usually they are labeled with what area they power EX. Garage, kitchen and so on. Once you flip the breaker you should hear a loud click to tell you that the breaker is shut off, an easy way to make sure that the power is off is to plug in a radio and wait until it stops playing then you will know that there is no power.
Their are other styles of breaker boxes including a fuse panel if you have any questions about this please Comment
