The well-known crack of a rifle, whose ball came skipping along the placid surface of the strait, and a shrill yell from the island, interrupted his speech, and announced that their passage was discovered.
An arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) is a circuit breaker that breaks the circuit when it detects an electric arc in the circuit it protects to prevent electrical fires. An AFCI selectively distinguishes between a harmless arc (incidental to normal operation of switches, plugs, and brushed motors), and a potentially dangerous arc (that can occur, for example, in a lamp cord which has a broken conductor).
AFCI protection devices are not found in wall receptacles, but are incorporated into your house's main electrical service equipment panel in the form of special circuit breakers. Your house can easily be AFCI protected. Just have a licensed and insured electrician replace the circuit breakers for bedroom areas with AFCI circuit breakers.
