Both arc fault protection and ground fault protection are required in kitchens and laundry areas according to the 2017 NEC, with expansion to further areas expected in coming code cycles. Eaton has long been a leader in ground fault and arc fault protection-both from the breaker and from the receptacle. Eaton AF/GF receptacle allows for local reset and provides protection from series arcs, parallel arcs and ground faults using Eaton 15 years of arc fault experience to help reduce the number of unwanted nuisance trips and self-test GFCI technology to ensure the proper operation of the protection circuitry.
