A friend has a breaker box with Cutler Hammer breakers. in a 125 Amp
box

I saw some 20 and 40 amp breakers but no main breaker.
One of them is BR2020 for the 20 amp breaker.

Where is the main breaker located located?

Thanks,
Andy

You're not giving much information. Is this installed or sitting on his
kitchen table?

Very silly question.

integral part of the meter box. It is also possible that it is a split
buss
panel with main breaker section on the top, which would have spaces for up
to six double pole breakers.

What I have is called a main lug load center.
It has no main breaker.

OK, it's a main lug panel. If it's not used as the main service panel, it
doesn't require a main breaker. What , exactly are you trying to determine?

I like asking questions. I am a scientist.

It is being used as the main service panel.

From what I can see, there is no way to shut off power to the whole
house in one step.

I see 2 options. Turn off every breaker or pull the meter.
