“Nuisance Tripping” in Eaton BR and CF AFCI Circuit Breakers

AFCI circuit breakers are meant to protect a home from dangerous electrical arc faults that can cause a risk of fire. If a dangerous electrical arc fault is detected, anAFCI circuit breaker trips to stop the current and prevent an electrical fire. However, Eaton’s BR and CF AFCI circuit breakers are prone to “nuisance tripping.” Nuisance tripping is when the circuit breaker trips after mistaking a harmless electrical arc for a dangerous electrical arc.

Harmless electrical arcs can occur frequently, including when electrical devices in your home are switched on or off.

Having electrical breakers that constantly trip due to the everyday use of electronics in your home can cause significant problems, and replacing these faulty circuit breakers can be costly and complex.

The Cost of Replacing AFCI Circuit Breakers

Unfortunately, replacing your faulty AFCI circuit breakers can be expensive and time-consuming. The replacement breakers you can get from Eaton can suffer from the same defect as the original breakers, and changing to another brand requires the replacement of your entire electrical panel box.

This expensive replacement can be time-consuming and will likely require you to leave your home for days. The inconvenience and cost of moving to a temporary accommodation significantly add to your damages.

The National Electric Code

The National Electric Code, which provides a set of residential and electrical housing standards used by many cities and states throughout the country, began requiring the installation of AFCIs in new residential construction in 2008. As one of the primary circuit breaker providers in the United States, this led to faulty AFCI circuit breakers from Eaton being installed in a significant number of homes. If you have experienced problems with your Eaton AFCI circuit breakers and have suffered financial damages, an experienced lawyer can help you recover compensation as part of the Eaton class action lawsuit.

What Is a Class Action Lawsuit?

In a class action lawsuit, one or more parties file a lawsuit on behalf of themselves and others, known as the class. If compensation is successfully recovered, either through a settlement or a court ruling, everyone in the class will recover compensation.

However, the amount recovered will likely not be the same for every party involved. The extent of the damages you suffered compared to others in the lawsuit will be evaluated, and you will recover a portion of the money awarded based on your level of loss.
