    What year did they start using breakers in your area?

    Trying to figure out what you are really asking and why.

    Mostly fuses into the 1950s and some into the 1960s, but some breakers in the 1950s too. So going with a breaker in the 1960s would be logical.

    Size-wise, the 150 amp would not be uncommon, no different than 150 amp fuses.
