I need to replace a faulty breaker. Here’s a picture of my main breaker box. There’s no master switch that I can see that shuts off power to all of the breakers.

Following the line up and out of the box, it runs along the basement ceiling and out through a hole in the foundation.

Let me know if you need to see something else.

Edit. Resolved! I found a master switch on the outside of the house in a panel adjacent to the meter. Weird that anyone can just walk up to my house and turn all of the power off.

    The other side of this wall is dirt. This is on an outside foundation wall

      Look for the meter, not just the other side of the wall. There must be a meter somewhere

        You were kind of right. Check out my edit to the original post

          Interesting. When I had my panel upgraded they had to put the main breaker right behind the panel. Guess they’ve got leeway if that’s not actually possible.

            Probably depends on your locality. Got a new service 4 years ago and the only main breaker is in the service. The city can it it from the meter I suppose if they need to.
