Purchased extra so don’t need them anymore **** An arc fault circuit breaker or interrupter (arc fault circuit breakers) is a circuit breaker designed to stop fires by sensing non-functional electrical arcs and disconnect power before the arc starts a fire. The arc fault circuit breakers should distinguish between a working arc that may occur in the brushes of a vacuum sweeper, light switch, or other household devices and a non-working arc that can occur, for instance, in a lamp cord that has a broken conductor in the cord from overuse. Arc faults in a home is one of the leading causes for household fires. Arc fault circuit breakers look like a GFCI/ circuit breaker (Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter in that they both have a test button, although it is important to  distinguish the difference between the two. GFCIs are designed to protect people against electrical shock, while arc fault circuit breakers are primarily designed to protect against fire. The arc fault circuit breakers is intended to prevent fire from arcs to ground and works at a higher threshold (30 mA) than the GFCI/RCD (Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupt/Residual-Current Device) implementations protecting against the safety hazard of electric shock (which operate at 6 mA). However, advanced electronics inside an arc fault circuit breakers breaker detect sudden bursts of electrical current in milliseconds, long before they would trip a regular overcurrent circuit breaker or fuse. Combined devices are available which trip at the lower, 6 mA threshold of a true GFCI/RCD. Regular arc fault or Branch/feeder AFCIs protect only against line-to-ground and line-to-neutral arcs, known as parallel or high-energy arcs. Combination Type AFCIs, protect against both of these arc faults plus series arcs, which can be caused by broken conductors, loose screws and a host of other invisible faults. Beginning Jan 2008, only "combination type" arc fault circuit breakers' will meet the NEC requirement. These can protect cords as well as wiring
