To continue, I have seen absolutely every single kind of breaker overheat, melt in the on position, including a Square D QO, in my own house, that caught some wood on fire before another breaker tripped. The Sq D QO had locked on. Also seen bad Cutler Hammer CH series, you name it, I've seen even new breakers overheat, melt and fry the bus bar. Recently I changed a 200 amp main, it was very Rusty internally from a damp basement/condensation. And even though it still worked sufficiently, it literally fell apart in our hands when we removed it. I have saved all of these gems, and when I get a chance, I'll post pictures of them.
