Can you install a 240v outlet for a stick welder near your panel if it has slots available for a circuit breaker?
Yes, you can install a 240V outlet for a stick welder near your panel if there are available slots for a circuit breaker. Be sure to follow local electrical codes, properly size the circuit breaker and wire gauge for the welder's electrical requirements, and consider having a qualified electrician perform the installation to ensure safety and compliance.
What is outgoing circuit breaker?
An outgoing circuit breaker is a device that is used to protect electrical circuits and equipment from overcurrent or short-circuit conditions. It is typically installed on the outgoing side of a distribution panel or switchboard to disconnect power in case of a fault. This helps to prevent damage to equipment and minimize the risk of electrical hazards.

You lost a voltage leg by connecting the ground wire to the circuit breaker but com ed wires are still energized?
Yes this could be true. The breaker to the load will have tripped. The main breaker should still be allowing voltage to the distribution panel because it did not trip. If the main breaker tripped then the distribution panel must have been close to maximum amperage and the shorting of the branch circuit was enough to trip the mains.
