One main part of any household branch circuit is its circuit breaker. It is designed to protect the electrical circuit from damage caused by current overloads or short circuits. It is designed to disconnect the electrical flow within a few milliseconds if it detects certain electrical faults. Then, to be able to provide power to the appliances and lights in the house, there must be fixed outlets and socket outlets supplied by the various branch circuits. Nothing can be provided with electrical power unless there is a main breaker panel to contain all the separate circuit breakers and also to provide the house with a main power on-off switch.
