GENERAL
NFORMATON
If during the installation of the home standby system
the decision is made to provide back up power to a
bedroom branch circuit, then the circuit breaker in
the transfer switch should be replaced with an Arc
Fault Circuit Interrupter.
It is most important that breakers only be switched
like for like. For instance, if replacing a 15A breaker,
it MUST be replaced with a 15A AFCI breaker.
Likewise, a 20A breaker MUST be replaced with a
20A AFCI.
These AFCI breakers are available at the nearest
hardware store.
