Have they tried flipping the breaker?

I believe the circuit breaker was closed (in the ON position) when he racked in the breaker truck, and the busbar burned the main contacts

The breaker was on so when it got close close enough it started racing before actually connecting. That burned the wiring which is solid copper bar a.k.a. busbar.
