QO115CAFI
Product Overview
QO arc-fault circuit interrupters (AFCI) quickly detects a wide range of arc-fault conditions, recognizes the nature and specific wave-form of an arc fault and trips the circuit breaker. Traditional circuit breakers and fuses are designed to detect overloads and short circuits. Arc-fault circuit breakers are designed to detect overloads, short circuits and arc faults.

For providing overload and short circuit protection
- An arc-fault circuit breaker opens the circuit and stops the arcing and high intensity heat before a fire is likely to ignite
- Have special microprocessor-based arc identification to differentiate necessary operational arcs (associated with loads such as electric motors, switches and receptacles) from actual arc faults which can cause damage and fires
- Differentiate true arc faults from chopped wave-forms associated with switched-mode power supplies on electrical appliances, computers and lamp dimmers
- VISI-TRIP feature
- 14 - 8 AWG copper, 12 - 8 AWG aluminum
- K-Curve trip
- Special microprocessor based arc identification to differentiate necessary operational arcs (associated with loads such as electric motors, switches and receptacles) from actual arc faults which can cause damage and fires
- Visi-Trip® trip indicator
- Combination arc fault and ground fault Class A 6 mA
