Do Not use any tool to move the handle on a breaker--I had a customer who tried to reset a main breaker with a tool and snapped the handle--he needed a new panel-because his old panel was not up to code and his panel was no longer UL approved--Federal Pacific\

Again you are not tripping a breaker by turning it off

A breaker trips from either one of the following: over load, short circuit,ground fault. and an arc fault
