circuit braker install direction

Hi
In my house my circuit breaker didn't work correctly. Its attitude was irrational. It was installed upside down (vertically that the on switch was placed in the buttom ). Some of my colleage told me that if I flip the device it works correctly. he was right and now I don 't have any problem with it.
I'm looking for the logic behind this? It seems to me we dont have a specific input and output in circuit breaker.

Thanks Guys for your reply.

I had seen the page but I can't get the point. for instance some kind of Circuit breakers are based on electromagnet and we put them in series. the input and out shouldn't be important because we just sense the fields and in both direction the fields that has produced are the same ?
