3. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

   This three-wire single-phase system is common in North America for residential and light commercial applications. Circuit breaker panels typically have two live (hot) wires, and a neutral, connected at one point to the grounded center tap of a local transformer. Usually, one of the live wires is black and the other one red; the neutral wire is ...

4. Distribution board - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_board

   A distribution board (also known as panelboard, circuit breaker panel, breaker panel, electric panel, fuse box or DB box) is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure.

5. Pad-mounted transformer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pad-mounted_transformer

   Single- and three-phase pad-mounted transformers are used in underground industrial and residential power distribution systems, where there is a need for safe, reliable, and aesthetically appealing transformer design. Their enclosed construction allows the installation of pad-mount transformers in public areas without protective fencing.

6. Arc-fault circuit interrupter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc-fault_circuit_interrupter

   When installed as the first outlet on a branch circuit, AFCI receptacles provide series arc protection for the entire branch circuit. They also provide parallel arc protection for the branch circuit starting at the AFCI receptacle. Unlike AFCI breakers, AFCI receptacles may be used on any wiring system regardless of the panel.

   3–5 times rated current I n, e.g. a nominally 10 A device will trip at 30–50 A C 5–10 times I n: D 10–14 times I n: K 8–12 times I n. For the protection of loads that cause frequent short-duration (approximately 400 ms to 2 s) current peaks in normal operation Z 2–3 times I n for durations on the order of tens of seconds.
