If both faults were L-G then I would suspect high impedance ground fault path. I wouldn't worry too much about conductor damage if that was the case because the conductor probably never saw enough amperage. Did the jumper melt because along the whole conductor, or from the contact point back?
I got five reply's saying the same thing, but not one that comes close to explaining the problem.Can anyone address the breaker problem instead of my procedure problem?
skipr, I thought at least 3 explained it pretty well. Lose the defensiveness and reread.
