Want this question answered?
Certainly not in the case of high-voltage circuit breakers. Probably not in low-voltage circuit breakers, as copper is a better conductor and has a higher melting point.
3 pole circuit breakers are used for 3 phase lines
Some fuses/circuit breakers blown? Some cables not connected?
10,000 Amperes.

Nothing happens when circuit breakers are exposed to sunlight. They still work just as they are supposed to work.
The purpose of the SEC's circuit breakers rule is to:
Square D circuit breakers can be purchased from various homeware and DIY stores such as Home Depot or Lowes. Websites that specialise in circuit breakers such as Circuit Breaker Service or All Breakers do sell them as well.
GE circuit breakers with catalog numbers ranging from THQL1115 through to THQL1150 can be substituted like for like with Cutler-Hammer circuit breakers coded CL115 through to CL150, ITE Siemens circuit breakers coded Q115 through to Q150 and Square D circuit breakers coded HOM115 through to HOM150. These are single pole breakers. GE circuit breakers with catalog codes from THQL2115 through to THQL2150 can be substituted with Cutler-Hammer circuit breakers CL215 through to CL250, Square D circuit breakers HOM215 through to HOM250 and ITE Siemens circuit breakers Q215 through to Q250 of the same amperage and voltage. These are double pole breakers.
most circuit breakers are under the hood near the battery. major breakers. you have to unscrew cover.

No.
An electromagnet if formed by pushing current through a coil. If the circuit is truly open, current will cease to flow, thus no electromagnet.

Yes, different amperage rating circuit breakers can have the same short circuit characteristics.
Lowes and Home Depot carry circuit breakers as well as the wiring and box. Circuit Breakers come in several watts, so be sure you get what is appropriate for your living space.
