Features & benefits

Eaton’s OBC AF/GF dual-purpose receptacle provides bothArc Fault and Ground Fault protection in one convenient device. It has the same foot print of a standard GFCI or AFCI device, and uses Eaton’s proven AFCI technology to reduce nuisance AFCI tripping. With the 2014 NEC requiring kitchens and laundry areas to have both AFCI and GFCI protection, and other areas expected in further code expansions, the AF/GF receptacle is a great new alternative solution for getting code-compliant.

Table 4. Color ordering information

AF/GF receptacles are designed with the safety of the user in mind. Eaton’s AF/GF receptacles protect against both unexpected paths to ground and unseen arc faults that can result in electrical fires. The NEC requires GFCI or AFCI protection on certain circuits in residential, commercial, and industrial – in some cases both AFCI and GFCI protection are required on the same circuit. These receptacles are UL Listed and fully compliant with all of the latest UL943 Class A GFCI and UL1699A requirements. Eaton’s AF/GF receptacles include tamper resistant shutters to provide compliance with the 2014 NEC Article 406.12 that states that all receptacles installed in dwelling units must be tamper resistant. Additionally, these AF/GF receptacles incorporate lock-out functionality to protect against mis-wired line-load connections and dam-age the AFCI/GFCI circuitry.

Applications

Table 5. AF/GF status indicator Test indicator Red LED

Test indicator Amber LED

Rest button status Diagnosis Action

OFF OFF In "Device is functioning properly OR branch circuit may have no power"

Additional details

• Like GFCIs, these products arrive in the

tripped state from the factory

• If wired correctly, the amber LED will be

illuminated, showing this tripped state

• Device just needs to be reset with button once

installed and it will then be ready for normal

operation

• If the amber LED is not illuminated when wired than

the product has been miswired (likely a line/load

mix up) or there is no power in the circuit
