/diy/ - Do It Yourself

I live in an apartment in North America that has an electrical panel with old style fuse bulbs in it. Some of the rooms in my apartment do not correspond to any of the fuses (but they still have power). I am 99% sure there is no other fuse panel in my room and nothing anywhere else in the building accessible to me.

>Is it possible that there are unfused circuits in my apartment?

My building is ancient and when I spoke to an electrician who was in the building for some other reason he said it wasn't likely (but offered no explanation for the rooms having power with the fuses removed) and basically just ignored any attempt I made to try and talk to him. Landlord told me he doesn't know and "can't you just plug whatever into the outlets? Why do you care?"

Wouldn't it be a safety violation (even if the building is ancient) to not have the room circuits going through a fuse? Its gotta be somewhere right, just hidden in the building somewhere.
