Emission Information - Generac 8kW Manual Del Usario

If during the installation of the home standby system the decision
is made to provide back up power to a bedroom branch circuit,
then the circuit breaker in the transfer switch should be replaced
with an Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter.
It is most important that breakers only be switched like for like.
For instance, if replacing a 15A breaker, it MUST be replaced with
a 15A AFCI breaker. Likewise, a 20A breaker MUST be replaced
with a 20A AFCI.
These AFCI breakers are available at the nearest hardware store.
