I read the article. Left me confused on one point: AFCI protects from one thing, GFCI protects against another. So someone wants to add AFCI. What happens to GFCI? Are they proposing to replace GFCI with AFCI? Or are they adding AFCI and keeping GFCI so now we have both requirements? How is that going to work? Has anybody tried these things out?
I am all for more technology. Keeps engineers employed, off the streets and out of trouble. Keeps making money for the fat cats. Keeps them from making real trouble. Besides, you didn't think you were actually going to get to keep any of your money, did you?
