My next door neighbor has a 50 Amp Bulldog Pushmatic circuit breaker
that has finally died. It looks like moisture may have been part of
the process, but there is no dampness in the breaker box at the
moment. Disregarding the moisture problem, is/are that style of
breaker still available? I moved the stove circuit that was on the
breaker to another 50A circuit that feeds a spare stove in the
basement, so they are fine for over this weekend, but we need to get
it replaced next week if possible. The local hardware store and Big
Boxes only carry the newer style breakers. We have a couple of local
wholesale electric equipment places I can try to call next week on
Tuesday, but I am curious to know if I might have any luck when I do
call.

TIA,

Yes they are still available at electrical supply houses, but as with all
obsolete breakers, they're expensive. The last time I got a double 50
pushmatic, it cost $70. If you've got the time, you may want to try the
internet or Ebay
