I don't know if all households have the electric installations fused centrally, but all places I lived in and saw when scouting for my current house had circuit breakers. I would bet that it's mandatory in Switzerland for safety reasons.
Modern properties have circuit breakers, but there are still very many homes with fuses. Check out Migros, they sell a range of Swiss fuses - grey little pots about 4cm long...
