I was trimming out a house yesterday. The homeowner decided that they wanted a dimmer on the kitchen cans. My supplier now only sells the lutron dimmers that do it all(led/cfl/halogen/inc)even though I am using incandescent bulbs. When I turned the dimmer up it trips the arc fault breaker every time. I changed to a regular dimmer. No problems. What's up with that?
