Instructions / Assembly

7. Connect the wires only after reading other side completely - Two cables (4 or 6 wires) entering the box
Connect the LINE cable wires to the LINE terminals:
• The white wire connects to the WHITE terminal (Silver)
• The black wire connects to the HOT terminal (Brass or Black)
Connect the LOAD cable wires to the LOAD terminals:
• Remove the YELLOW sticker to reveal the LOAD terminals
• The white wire connects to the WHITE terminal (Silver)
• The black wire connects to the HOT terminal (Brass or Black)
Connect the grounding wires (only if there is a grounding wire):
• Connect a 6-inch bare copper (or GREEN) 12 or 14 AWG wire to the grounding terminal on the
GFCI. If the box has a grounding terminal, also connect a similar wire to the grounding terminal
on the box. Connect the ends of these wires to the LINE or LOAD cable's bare copper (or
GREEN) wire using a wire connector. If these wires are already in place, check the connections.
Complete the installation:
• Fold the wires into the box, keeping the grounding wire away from the WHITE and HOT
terminals. Screw the receptacle to the box and attach the faceplate.
• Go to step 8.

8. Test your work
Why perform this test?
• If you miswire the AFCI it may not mitigate the effects of arcing faults due to
unintentional arcing in a circuit.
• If you mistakenly connect the LINE wires to the LOAD terminals, the AFCI
will not reset and will not provide power to either the AFCI face or any
receptacles fed from the AFCI.
Procedure:
(a) This AFCI is shipped from the factory in the tripped condition and cannot
be reset until it is wired correctly and power is supplied to the device.
Turn the power ON at the service panel. Ensure that the AFCI is still in the
tripped condition by pressing the TEST button. If the indicator light on the
AFCI face is ON go to the Troubleshooting section because LINE and LOAD
wiring connections have been reversed. You will not be able to RESET the
AFCI in this condition.
(b) Press the RESET button fully. If the Indicator Light turns ON, the AFCI
has been installed correctly. If the AFCI cannot be reset, go to the
Troubleshooting section.
(c) Press the TEST button, then plug a lamp or radio into surrounding
receptacles to see which one(s), in addition to the AFCI, lost power when
you pressed the TEST button. DO NOT plug life saving devices into any
of the receptacles that lost power. Place a "AFCI PROTECTED OUTLET"
sticker on every receptacle that lost power, then press the RESET button to
reset the AFCI.
(d) Press the TEST button (then RESET button) every month to assure proper
operation. If the Indicator light does not go out and come back on or if the AFCI cannot be
reset, then it must be replaced.
