What they say

Hide

Siemens P4 panel. So, I know exactly the screw size. Then, I'm going to take a look at the circuit breaker and use my voltmeter and my ammeter cuz I want to see exactly what's going on with that circuit breaker and why it's arcing. I'm also going to use PPE and make sure I got face protection and rubber rubber flooring because I want to make sure I'm safe. So, after I do that, I'm going to establish give a diagnosis and then we're going to go from there. Okay,
