In just seconds, undetected arc faults can break out into an electrical fire. Broken wires, loose connections, crushed cables and worn insulation can all cause hidden arc faults in electrical circuits. Arc Fault Detection Device’s (AFDD’s), also known as Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter, can help to isolate the faulty circuit as soon as the Arc fault is detected.
Arc faults can be difficult to see. They usually occur in hidden places, such as damaged cables, inside walls or a loose connection in a hidden junction box, or outlet sockets.
Arc Faults are one of the main causes of electrical fires. These fires are surprisingly common in older buildings.
What is an Arc Fault Detection Device?
The Clipsal MX9A3216 AFDD is a circuit breaker that automatically cuts the electricity supply when it detects an arc fault in a circuit. By cutting the electricity supply, AFDD’s help prevents arc faults from reaching temperatures where electrical fires can break out.
This MAX9 product is an arc fault detection RCBO.
MX9A3216 is a 1P+N circuit breaker with 1 protected pole, 16A In rated current at 30øC and C tripping curve.
