Expert Reply:
You could test for continuity with a multimeter like the # PT89ZR and you'd know if the breaker part # SB324-245 was allowing the circuit to complete. Testing for continuity basically means testing to see if voltage could be passed between two contacts, in this case it would be the studs of the breaker. By nature a circuit breaker automatically resets. If you find that one isn't resetting the only solution is to replace it.
