Installation Instructions
About wire connections:
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)
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)
Connect the grounding wires as shown above (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 AFCI/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
and 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.
A: One cable (2 or 3 wires) entering the box B: Two cables (4 or 6 wires) entering the box

About wire connections:
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)
Connect the grounding wire (only if there is a grounding wire):
• For a box with no grounding terminal (diagram not shown): Connect the LINE cable’s bare
copper (or green) wire directly to the grounding terminal on the AFCI/GFCI receptacle.
• For a box with a grounding terminal (diagram shown above): Connect a 6-inch bare
copper (or green) 12 or 14 AWG wire to the grounding terminal on the AFCI/GFCI. Also
connect a similar wire to the grounding terminal on the box. Connect the ends of these
wires to the LINE 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 miswired the AFCI/GFCI, it may not prevent personal injury or
death due to a ground fault (electrical shock), or it may not mitigate the
effects of arcing faults due to unintentional arcing in a circuit.
Procedure:
(a) Turn the power ON at the service panel. Press the RESET button
fully. The RESET button should stay in. If the RESET button does not
stay in, go to Troubleshooting. If the RESET button stays in, plug a
lamp or radio into the AFCI/GFCI (and leave it plugged in) to verify
that the power is ON. If there is no power, go to Troubleshooting.
(b) Press the TEST button in order to trip the device. This should
stop the flow of electricity, making the radio or lamp shut OFF.
Note that the RESET button will pop-out. If the power stays ON, or
the red indicator lights stay off, go to Troubleshooting. If the power
goes OFF, and the red indicator lights come on, you have installed the
AFCI/GFCI receptacle correctly. To restore power, press the RESET
button.
(c) If you installed your AFCI/GFCI using step 7B, plug a lamp or radio
into surrounding receptacles to see which one(s), in addition to the
AFCI/GFCI, lost power when you pressed the TEST button. Do not
plug life saving devices into any receptacles that lost power. Place an
“AFCI/GFCI Protected” sticker on every receptacle that lost power.
(d) Press the TEST button (then RESET button) every month to assure
proper operation.
(e) This device has Self-Test GFCI circuitry with SafeLock Protection™; it conducts an
automatic test every three seconds, ensuring it’s always ready to protect. If the device fails
the test, the GFCI indicator light flashes to signal that the GFCI should be replaced. It also
has our proven SafeLock Protection feature: if critical components are damaged and
protection is lost, power to this receptacle, and any downstream receptacles, will be
disconnected.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Turn the power OFF and check the wire connections against the appropriate wiring
diagram in step 7A or 7B. Make sure that there are no loose wires or loose connections.
Also, it is possible that you reversed the LINE and LOAD connections. LINE/LOAD
reversal will be indicated by no power at the AFCI/GFCI and by the RESET button not
staying in when pressed, or by the red indicator lights remaining off after you press the
AFCI/GFCI's TEST button. Reverse the LINE and LOAD connections if necessary. Start
the test from the beginning of step 8 if you rewired any connections to the AFCI/GFCI.
