Is it possible that when a circuit breaker in a service box opens due to a
short in the circuit that it is controlling, that the lever does not (also)
move to the other position ?
e.g., that there might not be any visible indication that it has tripped ?
If so, is this fairly common with circuit breakers in a house service box ?
Likely ?
Why ?
Thanks,

If you have a dead circuit, but the circuit breaker is still on, I
would check any GFI outlets and see if they tripped. It's possible
they could be feeding other circuits downstream.
