I haven't done any residential work for a long time so here is my question..
210.12 A 1 states a listed combo AFCI installed to provide protection to entire circuit. They do not specifically mention breaker here. There is no mention about the length of branch circuit.
210.12A 3 and 4 mention AFCI breaker and device combinations but specifically mention maximum branch circuit lengths for #12 and #14 wiring. What would you do if home runs were more than 70 and 50 ft? Upsize the home runs?
I thought you can just use an AFCI breaker at the origin of the circuit and it would satisfy 210.12.
Thank you in Advance!!!!
