i get confused with the big breaker box in garage and i have another box that's outside. I think the outside box has the big breakers for ac units or something.

If i turn the main breaker off inside, does that also turn the big ones off in the box outside? if that makes sense.

I'm not sure. You'd have to play with it to see. I have 2 boxes, one big one outside and one inside a closet. I turn the main off the biggest box outside and it all shuts down.

You might want to open the doors of those panels and look. For me, I have a large outside panel under the meter that feeds the AC unit, the detached garage, one exterior outlet and one 20-A interior outlet directly. The panel inside is actually a sub-panel that holds all the other interior circuits.
