Why have a circuit breaker or breaker box in a barn?
Circuit Breaker/Breaker Box
An Electrical Box or Devise fit into a wall or onto a wall where all the electrical connections meet. When too many wall outlets are in use, this box will internally flip a switch on the panel board. This is to prevent electrical shock from too many circuits in use.
