OBC AF/GF dual-purpose receptacles
Eaton’s OBC AF/GF dual-purpose receptacle provides both
Arc 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.
Features & benefits
•
Provides both arc fault protection per UL1699A and ground fault
protection per UL943 in one convenient device
•
Tapered backwire openings handle multiple wire sizes and
types for applications up to #10 AWG solid or standard wire
•
Protects from both series and parallel arcs downstream from
the Outlet Branch Circuit (OBC) AF/GF receptacle
•
When downstream receptacles are wired from load side,
a 20A feed-through rating offers full protection
•
OBC AF/GF receptacles also protect from upstream series arcs
•
•
Trip indicators make it easy to diagnose arc and ground faults
Lock-out functionality prevents miswired line-load connections
and GFCI/AFCI circuitry damage
•
Device self-tests periodically to ensure proper function of both
the ground fault and arc fault protection elements
•
Visual indicator light provides quick visual reference of a
tripped or “end of life” condition
•
Meets and exceeds 10ka short circuit testing and Underwriters
Laboratories (UL) UL943 safety standards
•
Tamper resistant (TR) shutters comply with 2014 NEC
Article 406.12
•
Ground termination with backwire clamp provides secure wiring
and reduces installation time
•
Terminal screws backed out and ready to wire
•
Matching standard size thermoplastic wallplate included
•
Automatic grounding system eliminates the need for bonding
jumper in grounded metal enclosure; provides redundant measure of ground continuity when jumper is used

Applications
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 damage the AFCI/GFCI circuitry.

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
