14:00 it's for the arc extinguishing, cools the arc, and make it to travel more distance, and dang 500 it's cuz of the brand they are good but not many companies can afford them
Nice to see your vids again, I have a Stanley set of insulated screwdrivers like that and another set of green "glass" insulated ones for heavier duty applications. Still rocking your sticker on my tablet and laptop my daughter peeled the one off my phone lol
Like the look of the Klein set, I use facom drivers as they seem to last longer than some other brands. I do have a full Kleins in my Arsenal but they are not so popular over in the uk for some reason.
It seems that the "commercial" breaker was serviceable? replacing just the bottom leg @ 5:00 mark from the disassembly procedure shown when you were examining failure ( IMO based on the rattling the latching mechanism that holds the breaker closed against spring tension until opened by the bimetal strip was worn out). I get that you can't experiment with a client's commercial equipment. Stay curious!
Curious INDEED! I get the name now... When I saw you take that next step to open the breaker I was like yah wtf IS going on in there... curious minds curious minds.. also I thought the Skelton key was "kinda cool lookin"
You all think a $500 breaker is so bad. Take a look at a Crown Steam part 3-s467 on partstown. Its a goddamn steam solenoid selling for $2,732.28. Everyone's riding the supply chain band wagon.
I know changing a breaker is no big deal... but normally we call electrician just because that's our protocol. Is it normal for you to change them out. I want to change them at times but they make us call the electrician

$500 is astronomical for a breaker.
I had a 1980's Cutler-Hammer 3-pole breaker cost me $312 as it was out of production. Silly, but cheaper than a whole new panel.
I thought that in North America they had AFDD(arc detection)?
In UK a 3 pole standard MCB would cost $50 to $70. North America don't even see RCD!!!
that J box is old school dust proof explosion proof. glade too see a video from you Bill.
That's a great screwdriver said I've been owning mine well ever since they came out with them Great content thanks a lot
Diagnosis: failed breaker
Notes: shaky stuff inside caused bad
Me: _nods, writes this down_

My company paid over a grand for a replacement outdoor lighting contactor. Seems a bit steep!
That’s a cool call and the breaker lost its spring tension happens often now days

Old school video! Love it

In are state are licensed covers up to to the disconnect possibly up to breaker then we would call a licensed electrician there a lot if liability .
Love the vids man, how can I buy some of your stickers to add to my hvac swag box?
we need Clive to audit/narrate the breaker autopsy
Hey man, have you changed jobs ? Nice Vid, like your old shop callouts
13:56: "a piece that dissipate heat", not quite, it quench the arc when the contact open.

$500 for a breaker if that was at a residential house you would give the owner a heart attack. The extra $400 for the brand name Siemens
