I’m sure I missed a few but I did kill the ones I saw.

Also, it seemed not to be seated all the way it wasn’t flush with the other circuit breakers toward the center spine of the panel. At first I couldn’t get that to become flush so I called the customer however, I tried one more time and was able to get it to click in and flush in the panel. It did not trip again after resetting so we’ll have to monitor. Yes you do have a surge protector, below is a photo of the circuit breaker.
