ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area Ceiling Fans Tripping AFCI's

At an IAEI meeting, the C_H rep did a little 'dog and pony' show, extolling the benefits of AFCI's.

He also alluded to nuisance tripping as caused by electronic ballasts, surge suppressore, dimmers, and speed controls.

It looks like the AFCI might be 'allergic' to ceiling fan controls too.
