Siemens QA115AFC 15-A Single Pole AFCI Combination Switch

works well without the nasty tripping found on some brands of AFCI switches. Overall I was very happy with the combination of the Siemens AFCI brands. I've been using them for several years on both new build and refurbishments and they seem to be very reliable overall with no recalls due to awkward driving after installation. I once received an unrelated new call to customer service about an accidental shutdown of a Siemens AFCI and it turned out to be just a loose lightbulb in the bedroomโ€ฆ
