Leviton 15 Amp AFCI/Switch Combo, Self-Test LED, Light Almond - Arc-Fault Circuit Interrupter

Safeguard your home and family with the advanced protection and convenience of the Leviton AFCI/Switch Combination 15 Amp Self Test LED Indicator Light (AFSW1-T). This innovative device masterfully integrates two crucial functionalities into a single unit: cutting-edge Arc-Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) protection and a versatile ON/OFF switch, all finished in an elegant Light Almond color.

Arc-faults are often unseen electrical hazards caused by damaged wiring, worn insulation, or faulty appliances, leading to dangerous arcing that can generate extreme heat and ignite fires. The Leviton AFSW1-T is engineered to continuously monitor your electrical circuit, swiftly detecting both series and parallel arc-faults that traditional circuit breakers might miss. Upon detection, it instantly trips the circuit, stopping the flow of electricity and preventing potential electrical fires before they start. This makes it an indispensable component for meeting current NEC® (National Electrical Code) requirements in critical areas like bedrooms, living rooms, and other residential spaces.

Experience unparalleled peace of mind with the integrated Self-Test feature. This intelligent technology automatically and continuously performs internal diagnostic tests, ensuring the AFCI protection is always functioning correctly. A clear, intuitive LED Indicator Light provides instant visual confirmation of the device's operational status. You'll know at a glance that your circuit is protected, and any fault conditions are easily identifiable for quick troubleshooting.

Beyond its superior safety features, this Leviton AFCI/Switch Combination offers practical advantages. Its dual-function design saves valuable space in your wall box and simplifies wiring, making it an ideal solution for new installations or upgrades. The 15 Amp rating is perfect for common household lighting and fan circuits, providing reliable control and robust protection. The attractive Light Almond finish ensures it complements a wide range of interior decors and existing Leviton devices, delivering a seamless and modern aesthetic throughout your home.
