Install the Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker using the following
procedure:
1. Latch the Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker by moving its
handle firmly to the
OFF
position.
2. Wire the Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker to load center (see
connection diagram).
A. Connect the coiled white “pigtail” wire from the Arc-
Fault Circuit Breaker to the panel or enclosure
neutral bus terminal and secure it tightly. Uncoil
pigtail as necessary.
B.
Connect the white (neutral) load wire to the
terminal side of the circuit breaker, identified by a
silver-colored terminal screw, labeled
L O A D
NEUTRAL
.
C.
Connect black (hot) wire to circuit breaker
terminals labeled
LOAD
, identified by a gold-
colored screw terminal screw.
3. Plug the circuit breaker into the desired pole position.
4. Test the Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker using the white
rocker switch on the front of the breaker, labeled
TEST
.
Follow Test Procedures as indicated in next section.
5. See Troubleshooting Guide for the troubleshooting
method to be used for a tripped Arc-Fault Circuit
Breaker.

Test Procedures (Circuit breaker should be tested regularly, at least once per month.)
The Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker senses arcs in two different ways. The test feature allows the homeowner to test each of
these modes by depressing a rocker switch in two directions. The breaker has passed the test if the
TRIP
flag
appears in
the window.
1. Arc Test: Rotate the test switch in the “Arc Test” direction to check the ability of the Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker to
detect arcing from phase to neutral (above normal levels needed to run appliances).
2. Short Test: Rotate the test switch in the “Short Test” direction to check the ability of the Arc-Fault Circuit Breaker to
detect low level arcs from phase to ground.
