print question

[Gaffen99]

I am looking at a print and keep seeing ACR next to the GFCI. Can someone tell me what this means?

[Dennis Alwon]

ACR could mean air conditioner and refrigeration

GFCI breakers may (probably do) have "HACR" rating. I don't think you will find this on GFCI receptacles though.

In what situation would you connect a GFCI breaker to a HVAC load ? Two pole GFCI breakers

are used to protect pools, hot tubs, spa. Single pole used for kitchen, bath, outdoor

recptacle protection. I don't get it ?

Look in the A sheets for a list of acronyms.

If for some reason it was cord and plug connected and used a 15 or 20 amp 125 volt receptacle in areas where GFCI protection is required ...... otherwise I dunno.

Right, or a dwelling garage, unfinished basement, receptacle is in kitchen counter area.

Is cord and plug window AC a 422 appliance or a 440 air conditioning equipment or a little of both?

Without look at the print... Above Counter maybe? If it is a kitchen/bathroom receptacle.
