Smoke detectors have alerted millions of families of fires, and they have saved countless lives.
These little devices remain a great line of defense against fires, and still are required for all bedrooms and living areas in the home.
Imagine, however, a technology capable of alerting you before a fire even starts. Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) breakers, by Eaton Cutler Hammer, can do just that. When you install Eaton AFCI breakers in your electrical panel, you protect your home from dangerous arcing conditions, which standard breakers simply cannot sense.
What causes arcing? It can be a variety of things, such as staples on wires during construction, which pinch the wires too tightly. Loose connections on outlets or switches and damaged appliance cords also are causes of arcing. Perhaps the most common cause is the nail used to hang a picture, or a screw used to attach your flat screen TV bracket, actually puncturing the wire on the other side of the wall.
The AFCI breaker features special electronic circuitry, which recognizes unique signatures associated with arcing faults. Today, the National Electric Code requires all rooms have them. Best of all, it just takes a short amount of time to remove old breakers and install new arc fault protected breakers.
