I have printed (from 2008 Handbook) the entire AFCI requirements, and commentary. I have handed out numerous copies to EC's and Electricians since '08 is now mandatory.

My opinion is "what is says" within the above pages. The tough areas of "Yes or No" will come up soon! Some new resi is starting, as the weather & economy are starting to cooperate.

Perhaps one of the powers that be in Trenton could compose a FTO so this issue could be "Uniform" statewide. I know thst's asking a lot, but I still believe in the tooth fairy!
