Arc fault technology saves lives and has been an industry standard in new construction for over 15 years. Today's arc fault technology has been proven through arc fault breakers and has gone through several iterations to reduce unwanted tripping due to interference from devices or appliances. Arc fault circuit interrupters have been established as a stable technology which can be used in conjunction with various loads through the home in both AFCI breakers and AFCI receptacles.
- Protects against arc faults in wiring resulting from damaged insulation and other causes that can lead to electrical fires
- Tamper-resistant receptacle provide compliance with 2017 NEC Article 406.12 that states that all 15 A and 20 A
- Ground termination with back wire clamp provides secure wiring and reduces installation time
- Line side terminals are backed out and staked for fast installation
- When downstream receptacles are wired from load side, a 20 A feed-through rating offers full protection
- Tri-combo head terminal and mounting screws
