Arc Fault Circuit Breakers: Protect Your Home From Electrical Fires

Arc fault circuit breakers (AFCBs) are designed to protect against electrical fires caused by arcing faults, which are caused by loose connections or damaged wires. When an AFCB detects an arc fault, it trips the circuit, cutting off power and preventing further damage. AFCBs are particularly important in high-risk areas, such as bedrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms, and can help ensure the safety of homes and businesses.
