You have to use square D AFCIs

Hypothetically, would it be illegal to say to a HO "I cant legally remove this AFCI breaker, but YOU can, and here's exactly how you do it..." ?

Sure, why not? Whatever a homeowner does after I leave is none of my concern. It's their house, they can do with it what they want.

Is Big Brother really watching? I wouldn't want it known that I advised a customer to remove safety equipment.

I have no such fear.

I know, hence why I am pushing (making the comparison to prove a point) fire sprinklers. I thought Peter D was referring to fire sprinklers as the thread went in that direction so I glossed over your GFP quote. :ashamed1::ashamed1:

Sprinklers are a separate issue to me and I don't have much interest in them. My focus is on exposing the AFCI for the scam that it is.

Not really...the dwelling unit fires that are said to be of electrical origin are about 12% of the total dwelling unit fires. So even a device or devices that would prevent 100% of the fires of electrical origin would not come close to solving the problem.

And fire sprinklers don't discriminate operation based on what caused the fire.
