Leviton AFSW1-W SmartLockPro AFCI Receptacle | Arc Fault Protection Outlet, White

Protect your home and loved ones with the advanced safety technology of the Leviton AFSW1-W SmartLockPro AFCI Receptacle. This crucial device provides continuous monitoring against dangerous arc faults, a leading cause of electrical fires, ensuring a safer environment for your family.

Arc faults are unintended electrical discharges that can occur in damaged wiring, cords, or electrical components. They are often unseen and can generate intense heat, potentially igniting nearby combustible materials. While traditional circuit breakers protect against overloads and short circuits, only an Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) like the Leviton AFSW1-W is designed to detect and quickly interrupt these specific hazardous arc conditions, preventing a potential fire before it starts.

The Leviton AFSW1-W features patented SmartLockPro Self-Test Technology. This advanced system regularly conducts an automatic internal test to ensure the AFCI is functioning correctly. Should a problem be detected, the device trips and prevents reset, providing clear indication and ensuring maximum protection. Its compact design allows for easy installation in standard wall boxes, making it an ideal upgrade for new constructions or existing homes.
