Save on Wiring Cost and Installation Time
The residential line of award-winning Combination Type Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters (CAFCIs) now includes a 2-pole Combination Type AFCI.
The 2-pole CAFCI was named a "100 Best New Products" for 2009 by Professional Builder Magazine.
The new 2-pole device can reduce wiring costs and installation time by enabling contractors to use multi-wire branch circuits, commonly known as "shared neutrals". When using single pole CAFCIs, a dedicated neutral is required for each circuit. The new 2-pole CAFCI allows electricians to share neutrals between the two circuits fed by the breaker.
Siemens Combination Type AFCIs are equipped with Siemens patented unique LED trip indicators, which help electricians and homeowners pinpoint the type or problems that cause the device to trip.
