Junction Boxes and AFCIs

[TeddyAdkins]

I have a few wires that are t going to reach my new panel so I'm going to have to use j-boxes to splice them.

My coworker said if I did that then gbe breakers must be replaced with AFCIs, is this true and if so can I have a reference?

Less than six feet of additional wire, you're okay.

That's good, do you have any code references to back me up if the inspector demands them?
