Okay. I just read his question in his OP and thought it odd that the panel didn't have a main breaker. I see above that he found the main. He said it's on an external panel. Must be sub panel.

I think that's the best possible course of action. Analysis paralysis solves a lot of problems.

To back up a bit, what work was done that caused the breaker to trip? I've seen switches where the black wire was hot coming in and the white wire, which is typically neutral, was used to carry power to the light fixture or plug. Power came through the fixture or plug with a two wire with ground going to the switch.
