Hi Everyone, question. Have new furnace in basement (nothing else in basement besides electrical panels and hot water heater - not finished basement). Inspector is saying furnace is required to be on arc fault breaker. Per NEC 210.12, I completely disagree, there is no mention of basement unlike the GFCI section of the code that specifically calls out requirements for the basement. Any input would be most appreciated. Thanks
