consumer unit

A distribution board (also known as panelboard, circuit breaker panel, breaker panel, circuit breaker,electric panel, fuse box or DB box) is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure. Normally, a main switch, and in recent boards, one or more residual-current devices (RCDs) or residual current breakers with overcurrent protection (RCBOs) are also incorporated.
In the United Kingdom, a distribution board designed for domestic installations is known as a consumer unit.
