The fact that you describe this breaker as 220 volts tells me you need to stay far far away from your electrical panel. Breakers do have a voltage rating, but they are normally referred to by amps and also one pole, two pole or three pole. A two pole breaker would be rated 150 volts to ground per over current device, a two pole is considered two over current devices. The exception here is called a straight rated breaker which is used for a Delta high leg system

If the home circuit breaker is damaged then its better to replace it with a new one. For that you need to call a licensed electrician in your area.

I agree with both previous answers. You cannot repair a damaged breaker, it must be replaced. If you have to ask how to do this, better seek an electrician before you kill yourself.

I have done a lot of work with electricity and if you have to ask this question, you should NOT attempt to do so.
Although replacing a breaker is a fairly simple thing to do. One mistake and you are history.
Call a professional.........
please......
