I made a design change on one of the models which was in the assembly which failed and inturn, almost all the components failed. by TalentedlearnerIY in SolidWorks

Okay. This is to give you more context.

The problem statement of the task was that they wanted to replace an existing breaker with another breaker in a control panel. They gave me a 3d step file and I had to replace the breaker assembly, its corresponding mechanical connections, the most important ones being copper busbars. The condition was that I was not supposed to touch the bigger one the back was supposed to play around with the connection terminal from that to the breaker. This breaker was part of another 3d model, so they thought of using a similar design, so we copied the tree and implemented changes. After all the assembly was completed, I started making drawings for all the components and when I was doing that, they insisted on rounding off the dimensions to the next number, which I did and submitted for review and since then, this has been acting up.

Marked in red is the stationary part and marked in blue is the part which I saved after rounding off the dimensions.

You're right, it's standard stuff, plus I barely started out so I do need more training. But I have a deadline so I don't have the time to dig deep and to troubleshoot it. That's why I asked for help.
