Overview
The Square D HOM120PCAFI is a 20 A, 120 VAC, single-pole Homeline combination arc-fault circuit interrupter with plug-on-neutral construction. It combines series- and parallel-arc detection with thermal-magnetic overload and short-circuit protection and a 10 kA AIR rating.
Key Features
-
Protection: Combination AFCI protection detects hazardous series and parallel arcing while the thermal-magnetic trip protects the branch circuit from overloads and short circuits.
-
Installation: The plug-on-neutral design connects directly to the neutral bar in a compatible Homeline load center; the screw-clamp terminal secures the branch conductor without a breaker pigtail.
-
Compatibility: Use only in Square D Homeline plug-on-neutral load centers or CSEDs specifically listed for HOM120PCAFI.
-
Performance: Rated 20 A, 1 pole, 120 VAC and 10 kA AIR for dwelling branch-circuit arc-fault protection.
