Emergency Service Call, Customer has an Arking 100 AMP Circuit Breaker, What do you do? Thoughts?

What happens here

After initial electrical measurements, an infrared scan will be performed using a thermal imaging camera. This scan will assess the entire internal structure of the electrical panel for any abnormal heat signatures, which can indicate loose connections, overloaded circuits, or other developing issues beyond the immediate arcing breaker. Any identified issues will be photographed and documented to provide the client with a comprehensive assessment and potential future service opportunities.

Goal: Conduct advanced thermal diagnostics and document all findings.

inspection. If I see that there's nothing popping, crackling, or it's just on, then I'll go and I'm going to get my thermal imaging camera. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And I'm going to bring a rubber mat. Forgot about that. Okay. So, I'm going to put on my PPE equipment because this is a 100 amp 480 V panel. Panel, right? Then, at that point, I'm going to do an infrared scan. I'm going to scan all inside of that panel to see if I can get more work later on. If I uncover anything, I'm going to take a photo of that, document it, and I'm going to continue with the work. That is the difference between. So, if you ask me, "Hey, how do I become more successful? How do I get more commercial work? How
