In homes, electrical fires are often caused by arcing\u2014which is when electrical current flows in an unintended path. Arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) breakers detect when power is going through the wrong circuit and protect your home by shutting the power to that circuit off.<\/p>

Electrical code in Texas requires arc fault circuit interrupter breakers for most living areas of the house, and\u00a0Aaron\u2019s Electrical Service<\/a>\u00a0can install or replace them to protect your home.<\/p>

Why Are Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter Breakers Required?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The National Electrical Code (NEC), which is the minimum standard in Texas, is written by the National Fire Protection Association. Arc faults are a leading cause of house fires, so arc fault circuit interrupter protection can truly save your property and your life.<\/p>

Arc faults can be caused by frayed wires, pinched wires, loose connections, or messy wiring behind your walls. Since 1999, arc fault protection has been required by the NEC in bedrooms. As of 2008, new or renovated homes must have arc fault protection, as well as in other \u201chabitable areas\u201d of the home like the living room and dining room.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Replacing Circuit Breakers with Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter Breakers<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

An arc fault breaker replaces the standard circuit breaker in your service panel. By adding AFCI protection at the breaker, you\u2019re covered for every single outlet and switch on that circuit. It\u2019s easier and less expensive to add an arc fault breaker than to replace all electrical outlets on the line.<\/p>

If you\u2019re building a new home or doing a renovation that affects the wiring (such as adding a new circuit or replacing the panel), then you\u2019re required\u00a0to upgrade. Installing AFCI breakers in your Houston home will help keep you, your family, and your home as safe as possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
