I think you mean the Separation of Powers. That is the division of authority among the branches of government.
The three-way division of power among the branches of the federal government is known as a system of checks and balances. The three divisions are the legislative, executive, and judicial branches.
I believe this would be referred to as a division of power and a checks and balances system.
Judicial Power, Executive Power, and Legislative Power
True - the purpose of creating three independent branches of the federal government was to divide and limit the power within the government. Delegates feared that if one person or group had too much power, the U.S. would wind up back under the rule of a dictator or tyrant. The division of government created checks and balances to each decision made.
