I had a problem in electric service panel in a home that I own. One
of the breakers kept tripping. When I checked it out, the breaker
was basically fried and when I took it out it looked like the breaker
pictured in the link below:

And, just like the description of the problem in the link, in my
case the other breaker that attached to the same hot lug(?) was also
damaged.


I would get a new breaker panel and all new breakers. Don't re-use the
old breakers.
Particularly since it is MOST likely the (reduced) breaker tab tension
that is causing the buss to burn.
