Ever wanted to know what happens inside an overloaded circuit breaker? I found out.

@Lydie that's quite cool! Is that resettable?

@Lydie Neat. I've never seen the inside of one before. Also impressive how fast it actually occurs. I guess it has to be that fast, but I've never actually been there watching a breaker go before.

Why didn't the current on the meter drop to zero when the breaker opened?
