Siemens QA120AFC Arc-Fault, Combination Circuit Breaker, 120/240 V, Fixed Trip, Plug-In Mounting

Plug-in, combination type CAFCI circuit breaker, complies with the requirements for both branch/feeder and outlet circuit CAFCIs. Required on January 1, 2008 by 2005 NEC, combination type CAFCI circuit breakers must be placed on bedroom power and lighting circuits. Protects downstream branch circuit wiring and cord sets and power-supply cords. Provides ARC fault, overload and short circuit protection. UL listed. Protects against worn electrical insulation or damaged wire, misapplied or damaged plug in appliances and equipment, and loose electrical connections. 2 LEDs appear for 5 seconds each time the CAFCI is turned on, up to 30 days after the last trip to indicate last known trip condition. One LED means arcing fault. Two LEDs means arcing fault to ground. 10kA interrupting rating. UL Listed, 120 volt AC. Wire range 14 - 8 AWG. 1 space, 120 volt.Detects all three possible types of arc faults such as line-to-ground, line-to-neutral and Series

Detects all three possible types of arc faults such as line-to-ground, line-to-neutral and Series

Intended to mitigate the effects of parallel arcs by de-energizing the circuit when an arc-fault is detected
