What's this button for?

Quote

“Arthur Dent: What happens if I press this button?
Ford Prefect: I wouldn't-
Arthur Dent: Oh.
Ford Prefect: What happened?
Arthur Dent: A sign lit up, saying 'Please do not press this button again.”

― Douglas Adams, The Original Hitchhiker Radio Scripts

Or from the original Goons......

 

"Don't press the red button!"

"Don't what?"

 

"..... Press the red button".

"O.K.!"

 

 

 

 

Boom.

On my Liverpool boats control panel there is a white button covered in a plastic dome can anyone tell me what it does please?  it's an Isuzu 42 panel and it's on the right hand side next to bilge pump button

Cheers 

It's for use on Hudson boats to call the butler.

It's the fuse for the bilge pump.

The pump is wired direct to the battery so needs a fuse.

My bedroom light keeps turning on and off.
