I had to replace one Eaton BR AFCI recently. Looks like it's a new part. This is AFCI only breaker, and it has a clear test button (old one has a white test button). Under the clear test button is a LED that can blink for some code. The part number is BRN115AF. It comes with an instruction leaflet, dated Nov 2018, in the Step 6 of installation, it says:
"Upon breaker power-up, the LED will display 1,2, or 3 quick blinks. The quick blinks will occur within half a second of startup.
- 1 quick blink represents that electronic overload detection is turned OFF; This is uncommon
- 2 quick blinks represent a handle rating of 15A
......"
I do have the 15A unit, but I only saw one blink. Anyone have any idea why I am having a "uncommon" breaker? Have you seen it before? Wonder if I have a bad unit... it trips when I press the test button. Thanks.
This is the breaker.
