Does anyone have any working experience with thermally protected outlets
like these:
http://www.bsafeelectrix.com/faq.htm
Multi-sensors in the outlet are preset to trip a contact switch in the
outlet when abnormal /temperature is detected at the binding head screw
terminals and / or at the outlets.
The information seems a little off:
An AFCI is not available in a standard outlet, only as a combination
Circuit Breaker. It works by recognizing various arcing signatures and as
noted in question nos. 5 and 7, an AFCI will not recognize a series arcing,
"glowing connection" condition.
I own several AFCI's in standard outlet form, so . . .
