Is it a good idea to       replace the "regular" circuit breakers in my home with arc faults? Is it ok to       install an arc fault on a GFCI circuit?

I actually always do this, even in switches. I       wrap the wire nut in electrical tape. I guess I am anal. Are there any       situations where taping a wire nut is bad?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
