    I hope that I'm describing this to make sense. A friends light circuit blew. All lights on the circuit are off and when I go to reset the hager trip switch it wont engage in the on position. Am I doing something wrong?

    No it's a Hager it's in that position to let you know it blew for a reason

    Try pulling the switch all the way down
    Then push it all the way up.

    Don't just try to push it up

    If it flicks down again you have an issue and should call an electrician

    Thanks I know it blew for a reason - all the possible reasons are off - and I want to find the reason that did it. I never tried to push it down and then push it up again. Thanks - and yes I will get him to call a sparks if I cannot isolate the issue.

    Got it sorted - thanks for the down/up tip. Turned-on everything linked to the fuse, one-by-one and nothing triggered again. Its not that everything together are overloading it. Its a small lighting circuit - odd. Will just have to monitor it for any recurrence..
