It's for pulling submersible pumps, the slot at the bottom lets you hook onto the retrieval chain, beats fishing around with the hook trying to snag the loop onto of the pump

I have hundreds of specialty tools we make or have made to perofrm certian tasks. Here is one that is sitting on the table today, can anyone guess what this is for? Hint, it has to do with a circuit breaker.

Close enough, it is for pulling and re-installing charging springs for a GE Powervacs during refirbishment. 
I also have a cart that allows us to flip it over to access the operating mech for disassembly.

I can see using them for holding various stuff (boxes, unistrut, etc) in place while I fight to find a screw or nut or something.

We've always called those "cowboy clamps"

I worked with a GE guy once and we used a 4x4 to flip a 15kv breaker to change and adjust the trip coil
