I always tell my students, “there are no dumb questions”, but this is one 
where I really should already know the answer.  For some reason, I got it in my 
head that the switches on my panel were circuit breakers.  I don’t think I have 
ever had one pop, and I realized the other day that none of them are labelled 
with an amperage.  So now I am wondering if they are just on/off switches.  I 
have looked online and see that you can buy similar panel switches that 
incorporate a circuit breaker and those are labelled with the amperage.   So 
are these breakers or switches?  If switches, how are the original panel 
circuits fused or maybe the question should be, how are they supposed to be 
fused?  Thanks- Dave
