More Info
|
Based on TFCI thermal technology engineered by BSafe Electrix, this revolutionary new receptacle prevents potentially catastrophic electrical fires caused by:
- Improper NEC Over-current Protection (OCP): use of a circuit breaker or fuse with rated ampacity higher than the wiring and receptacle it is protecting
- A Hot Plug: a High Resistance Connection (HRC) in the attachment plug of an extension cord and / or appliance power supply cord
- Improperly installed wiring and / or mechanically disturbed wiring connections leading to abnormal heating (high temperature) - glowing loose connections
HOW IT WORKS:
BSafe’s TFCI thermal cut-off technology receptacle incorporates a multi-sensor thermal switch mechanism. It senses abnormal temperature at each receptacle outlet and wiring screw terminal on the receptacle and shuts off electrical power to the load plugged into the receptacle outlet when overheating occurs.
