Probably a fuse box, if you have an owners manual it may tell you.  
You may find a manual on line. Alternately your library may have a service manual.

You can purchase a Haynes, or Chilton Manual at any auto parts store that will explain what many of the parts are under the hood and everywhere else on the car.  
They will be a wealth of info for you and at around $25.
