GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) and AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets are both designed to enhance electrical safety, but they serve different purposes and protect against different types of hazards. Whereas your circuit breaker is in charge of protecting your entire home, GFCI and AFCI outlets prevent:
- Electrical Fires
- High Voltage Shocks
- Electrocution
Which Outlets Do I Need?
The Difference Between GFCI & AFCI Outlets
In short, GFCI outlets focus on preventing electrical shocks due to ground faults, while AFCI outlets are specifically designed to reduce the risk of electrical fires.
Why You Should Upgrade
Greater peace of mind that you and your family are as safe as possible in your home. GFCI or ground fault circuit interrupters are designed to prevent people from suffering electrical shocks. AFCI outlets or arc fault circuit interrupters are in place to protect your outlets from overheating, sparking, and causing electrical fires.
