Metal bracket on a breaker?

Anyone know what this metal bracket is/is for? It was prevented taking off the cover. There did appear to be slight damage to the plastic where the bracket was installed. I did not try to remove it.

Re: Metal bracket on a breaker?

Looks like a "lock-out" for, possibly, a condenser unit or some other appliance.
