If they are switches, they will be circuit breakers. I don't know if that means that the box has no fuses. So: I think that it probably safe for you to feel around but I am not confident in that guess. As someone pointed out: if you cause your landlord problems, will they evict you? I hate that question but pragmatically you need to judge the risk/reward ratio. The rental market is so tight. Keeping track of what breakers are for what circuits seems to be hard to do. I don't know why. I currently suffer with this in two different houses. | From: Karen Lewellen via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | | It is a box, which my landlord told me was the fuse one, with scores of | switches with no indication of what circuits they control..he has no idea | himself. | | Speaking personally as someone who has embodied sight loss for several | decades, this is not how I manage hydro, especially with other property | standards violations in place.
