#shorts Did you know that circuit breakers will wear out over time for various reasons.
Here's an example of one I came across at my Church.

I am proud of how you take care of your church, Tom. There is going to be a lot of stars in your crown, Brother! Thanks for this one.

My 1965 mobile home has the original breakers. Built differently back then.

So.... I had a problem with my hot water heater one of the anode robs just fried out of nowhere now I got everything new I mean I did it all but replace the actual tank and now it gets no power. It doe have a jumper box like one of a outside ac unit. You pull this breaker bar kind of thing out and it cuts the electricity to the hot water heater I did turn off the breaker before I even pulled that out. Now I'm getting nothing from thet box or my hot water heater. You think it's the double breaker I shut off? If so I would set my multimeter to voltage over 200 and touch each breaker eith the red and black correct? Shoukd read 220 v? Right? Or am I not understanding? I hope you do get back to me if not I'm positive I'll figure it out. I've has such bad luck lately I just really hope it's a breaker and not something more serious. I mean such bad luck it's very alarming. 😪

Is it normal for my breaker to be moving a bit

You left the part out where you put a current clamp on it and made sure it wasn’t actually pulling just over the breaker rating. The breaker is designed to trip on overload on an inverse time basis. In other words, the more overloaded, the faster it trips. If you haven’t checked the current through the breaker, you have no idea if it’s functioning as designed.

That breaker has been doing the same function for 15 years. It's clear that the breaker was bad and a few minutes to replace it made the problem disappear.
