CH breaker shortage seems to continue.

Seems to still be an extreme shortage of CH breakers. Trying to find for existing panels can't get CH AFCI of GFCI at supply house of big box. Big box had a couple but almost without exception are returned opreviously opened packaging. Get to job site and 3 were actually broken. Other store had in locked enclosure but it also was an openedc but IT was not even an AFCI.

Dual Function were more likely to be available the last I looked. That's been a few months though.
Supply house, not a BB store.

Eaton has had trouble for about 4 years now building their FAZ line of DIN rail mount breakers. During the supply chain issues brought on by COVID I understood it, but it's like they've forgotten how to build circuit breakers. Some of their FAZ line are only now coming back in to stock.
