A branch type AFCI trips on 75 amperes of arcing current from the line wire to either the neutral or ground wire. A combination type adds series arcing detection to branch type performance. Combination type AFCIs trip on 5 amperes of series arcing. Dual-function AFCI GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) 110 volt receptacle circa 2016
