20 Amp Single-Pole Dual Function Arc Fault/GFCI Breaker (THQL1120DFA)

Attributes

Description

Quantity: 1, The 2014 National Electric Code has mandated Ground Fault and Arc Fault circuit protection on many 15 Amp and 20 Amp kitchen and laundry circuits. ABB and apposes Dual Function Circuit Interrupter (DFCI) offers both Ground Fault and Combination Arc Fault (GFCI and Amp; CAFCI) protection in a simple to apply and cost-effective solution. GFCI protection guards against ground faults are an effective means of preventing electrical shocks. GFCI circuit breakers accomplish this by detecting when current is leaking somewhere outside its intended path. If your body provides the path to ground for this leakage you could be burned, shocked or even electrocuted. CAFCI protection guards against damage or fires which can result from arcing and sparking that can arise from deteriorated wires, poor connections and breaches in wire insulation. With more than 67,000 home fires claiming more than 485-lives and injuring 2,300-victims annually, the added safety provided by CAFCI protection is an important step forward in reducing this risk.
