Classic case of loose connection.
On the installation, sometimes a bolt will appear to be tight but it's just the threads locking up for a variety of reasons. Sometimes the phone rings and distracts the mechanic before he can finish tightening it. It may have been OVER torqued and stripped.
I can't tell from the photo but generally you can clean those up.
I looked more closely at the picture and the affected terminal looked tweeked. It looks like the B and C phases of the breaker are installed BEHIND the bus while the A phase is installed in front.
Anybody?
good call. i looked closer to the picture and you are probably right
