The most interesting thing to me is the "party line" votes in CMP-2 that just confirm what we have known all along. NFPA has become as corrupt as the government with the process being controlled by the corporations who will make money on the decisions.
I have to find the time to read this whole paper, and review again the videos that I have from Siemens, and others regarding the combo AFCI. I use these videos in my courses at the vo-tech, and now I wonder if the info is factual.
Thoughts, gentlemen??
imho, a number of avenues exist fellas, one possibility is
powers that be are legally confronted
another might simply be quiet nonconfrontational clerical changes predicated on a failure of bureacracy
yet another, occuring as we speak, is the focus on glowing contacts,
i.e.-the entire afci market becomes moot
they may
all occur simultaneously, i couldn't say....
in any case that has, or
may occur , i would caution signing onto any manner of
belief system
that belongs in church,
not our trade,
nor as a safety feature anywhere
just my electrical secularist opinion this a.m.
