If you are talking about early electrical wiring the answer is no. Fuses were used. While they come in many different shapes, sizes and materials, in general a fuse is a device with a strip of a "sacrificial" material (such as zinc, copper, silver, aluminum or some alloy mix) enclosed within some non-combustible fixture or device that is designed to melt and create an open circuit if the current for which the fuse is rated is exceeded by a predetermined amount. By creating this opening in the circuit, the fuse as the "weakest link" protects the rest of the circuit or what is connected to it. While the speed, breaking capacity and reliability of fuses has improved over time, the basics have not. Circuit breakers are more sophisticated switched fuses that can be reset--unlike these original fuses which would need to be physically replaced when they were "blown".
In North America early Bulldog Pushmatic breakers were around in the late 1930's. In the 1950's most home installations had started the change from the old fuse type distribution boards to the new thermal design breaker. The push type reset breakers have now been replaced by toggle handle reset design breakers that you find in a modern home distribution panel.
High tension electrical panels, also known as high voltage electrical panels, are panels used for distributing and controlling high voltage power in industrial and commercial settings. These panels are designed to handle high levels of electrical energy and are often used in systems such as power generation plants, substations, and large manufacturing facilities. They typically feature robust insulation and safety mechanisms to ensure the safe operation of the high voltage equipment.
Any electrical supplier should be able to get that for you. Check you local Yellow Pages for electrical suppliers. <<>> A GDP 200 is an older type breaker that was manufactured by General Switch. It had a 10KAIC (interruption capacity). This type of distribution panel was used 40 to 50 years ago. The main breaker is almost next to non existent. The main breakers were manufactured by a different company and General Switch used them in their panels. You might look on EBay under electrical breakers. The original branch circuit breakers are also hard to find but some different brands will fit. There are some sites on the net that refurbish old breakers for your type of scenario. Safety wise it is not a good idea to mix and match breakers. You might want to consider budgeting for a distribution panel change.
Each device has its own special use. Glass fuses can protect circuit at very low amperages. They are usually used to protect printed circuit boards and control panel circuits. Breakers protect circuits from short circuits and overloads. These devices are used in service distribution panels to protect the wires that feed the loads. Circuit breakers can be from 15 amps up into the thousands of amps.
!0 amp breakers have not been used for quite some time . NEC made 15 amp the minimum requirement for 110/120 VAC circuit breakers a long time ago. If the breakers are only 10 amp, then those outlets can only carry 10 amps max.I would call an electrician. Your electrical service is terribly out of date and, in my opinion, inadequate and unsafe.
No, the electrical code disallows distribution panels to be used for splicing of conductors or to be used as a raceway for through conductors. Some inspectors will allow the use of butt splices, properly installed with the correct tool and finally wrapped with electrical tape. Before the job is started inquire at the Electrical Inspection Agency for their thoughts. <<>> You will be better off to splice the wires at some point outside the panel in a junction box (J-box). This method will be legal under most (perhaps all) electrical codes and will allow easier access.

Conduit is piping for electrical wiring. Steel conduit is the most common conduit used. It is often left visible in industrial atmospheres and can be seen running to electrical outlets, lighting panels, electrical panels, etc.
An electrical distribution centre is used to distribute circuits through out the building that it supplies. An electrical panel in your home is classified as an electrical distribution panel. The electrical distribution panels come in varying sizes and voltage ratings depending on what the building requirements are. Amperages for different loads are supplied through breakers that are part of the distribution panel.

Solar panels would work.
Yes, using photo-voltaic panels
yes SF6 gas is used in modern ckt. breaker.
the answer is nickel, copper, and lithium, the lithium is used for containing the electrical charge.
The solar panels get the light energy from the Sun and generates into electrical energy. This electrical is then being used to light stuff.
YES. because it converts the solar energy into electrical energy
The answer is solar panels. Solar panels are the main products used to generate solar power. These panels are comprised of solar cells, which use the photovoltaic effect to turn sunlight into electricity. Silicon is the most common type of cell used in solar panels. An electric field is created when sunlight strikes the solar cells, which produces an electrical current.
