ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area What are you paying?

With the price of arc fault breakers being a popular topic, I figured we could do some comparing on material pricing.

I'm in south GA and here's the going rate per my last statement.

GE 20A Arc fault Brkr $29.15

They're about the same here...
26 - 32 bucks - Square D

I haven't had to buy one yet, but I saw the supply house had a sign up saying $30 for Siemens. Ron are you putting them in by choice or are the inspectors requiring them? Up here in Atlanta, nobody I know is using them yet.

At thirty bucks a pop... it aint by choice!

$29.95 Cutler Hammer CH120AFCI

$34.95 GE THQL1120AFCI

$36.85 Square D Homeline HOM120AFCI

Or somewhere around there...

there's been a bit of price gouging here, as high as $44 for siemens

I'm paying $27.50 for Siemens 115 AFCI here in N.C.
