This manual provides essential information for the safe and proper installation, operation, and maintenance of the Square D HOM115PCAFIC 15 Amp 120V Homeline Plug-On Neutral Single-Pole Combination Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (CAFCI) Circuit Breaker. This device is designed to protect electrical circuits from dangerous conditions such as arc faults, overloads, and short circuits.

The HOM115PCAFIC circuit breaker continuously monitors the circuit and quickly turns off the power (trips) when a dangerous condition is detected. It is equipped with a diagnostic feature known as Time-Saver Diagnostics, which indicates the type of fault that last occurred on the circuit.

The HOM115PCAFIC is a single-pole, 15 Amp, 120 Volt CAFCI circuit breaker. Its key features include:

• Combination Arc Fault Protection: Detects both parallel and series arc faults.
• Overload and Short Circuit Protection: Standard circuit protection.
• Plug-On Neutral Design: Simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a pigtail wire, connecting directly to the neutral bar.
• Time-Saver Diagnostics: Provides an indication of the last fault type (arc fault, overload, or short circuit).
• UL & CSA Listed: Ó pàdé àwọn ìlànà ààbò gíga.

1. Mu ki Ile-iṣẹ Ibuwo naa dinku agbara: Turn off the main breaker in the electrical panel to ensure no power is present. Verify with a voltage idanwo.
2. Mura Awọn okun waya: Strip approximately 1/2 inch (13 mm) of insulation from the circuit wire (hot) and the neutral wire.
3. So Waya Gbona: Insert the stripped end of the circuit's hot wire into the terminal marked 'LOAD' on the circuit breaker. Tighten the screw firmly to secure the wire.
4. Fi sori ẹrọ Breaker: Position the circuit breaker onto the bus bar in the load center. The Plug-On Neutral design allows the neutral connection to be made automatically when the breaker is properly seated. Ensure it is fully engaged.
5. So Waya Ailopin: For the HOM115PCAFIC, the neutral connection is made directly to the neutral bar via the plug-on mechanism. No separate pigtail wire connection to the neutral bar is required.

Ise deede: In its normal operating state, the circuit breaker handle will be in the 'ON' position. Power will be supplied to the connected circuit.

Isẹ afọwọṣe:

• To turn off power to the circuit, move the handle to the 'OFF' position.
• To restore power, move the handle to the 'ON' position.

Ìrìnàjò: If an overload, short circuit, or arc fault occurs, the circuit breaker will automatically trip. The handle will move to a center 'TRIPPED' position. To reset a tripped breaker:

1. Move the handle fully to the 'OFF' position.
2. Then, move the handle to the 'ON' position.

If the breaker immediately trips again, do not attempt to reset it repeatedly. Investigate the cause of the trip.

• Bọtini Idanwo: Test the circuit breaker monthly by pressing the 'TEST' button. The breaker should trip immediately. If it does not trip, the breaker may be faulty and should be replaced by a qualified electrician. Reset the breaker after testing.
• Jeki Kedere: Ensure the area around the load center and circuit breakers is clear of obstructions and debris to allow for proper ventilation and access.

Awọn irin-ajo fifọ nigbagbogbo:

• Apọju: The circuit may be drawing too much current. Unplug some devices from the circuit and try resetting the breaker.
• Circuit kukuru: A direct connection between hot and neutral/ground wires. This often causes an immediate trip. Inspect wiring and connected devices for damage.
• Àbùkù Arc: Damaged insulation, loose connections, or pinched wires can cause arcing. The CAFCI breaker is designed to detect these.
• Ohun elo Aṣiṣe: An appliance connected to the circuit may be defective. Unplug all appliances and reset the breaker. Plug them back in one by one to identify the faulty device.

Time-Saver Diagnostics: The HOM115PCAFIC features a diagnostic LED that indicates the type of fault that caused the last trip. Refer to the specific diagnostic codes provided by Schneider Electric for detailed interpretation. Generally, a specific flash pattern will correspond to an arc fault, overload, or short circuit.

If you cannot identify or resolve the cause of frequent tripping, contact a qualified electrician.
