Not a GFCI but a AFCI
I had to put these goofy things in in the addition I put on a couple of years ago. It powers a 15 amp lighting circuit in the master bedroom, bathroom and hallway. It also powers my smoke detectors. Only 6 lights plus 3 smoke detectors on that circuit. The lights were off in the bedroom the other day so I flipped the afci breaker back on. Wont stay tripped on. I switched it out for a regular breaker and everything is working fine again.
They are expensive darned things to begin with.
Are these things like a gfci in that they will just crap out on you? I haven't done anything to the wiring lately.
Just wondering.
