63 TerminatIons
63.1 The abbreviation CU’ for the word “copper and ‘AL for the word aluminurn” shall be permitted in any required marking.
63,2 An arc-fault circuit-interrupter with wiring terminals intended and found acceptable for use with copper and aluminum conductors shall be marked “Use copper or aluminum wire” or with the abbreviations CU, and AL, ‘CU/AL. or the eqwvalent.
63.3 An arc-fault circuit-intemipter with terminals intended and found acceptable for copper wire only shall be marked “USE COPPER WIRE oNLY” or with the abbteviation “Cu ONLY”. lithe terminals are intended and found acceptable for aluminum wire only, the marking shall be USE ALUMINUM WIRE ONLY” or “AL ONLY”.
63.4 An arc-fault circuit-interrupter shall be marked with the proper wire range of the wiring terminals, If the terminals are intended for solid wire only. or stranded wire only, the device shall be marked “(wire range) AWG SOLID” or “(wire range) AWG SOL”, or with equivalent wording. The marking shall be located aciacerit to the terminal and shall be visible alter installation.
63.5 A permanenity installed arc-fault circuit-interrupter shall be marked with a range of values or a nominal value of tightening torque to be applied to the clamping screws of all terminal connectors for field wiring.
Exception: An Outlet Circuit AFCI is not prohibiied from having the torque information on the smallest unit container or on an information sheet that is shinped in the smallest unit conta,ner,
63.6 If a terminal is acceptable for the connection of more than one conductor in the same opening and is intended for such use, the marking shall indicate the proper connection.
63.7 Terminals or leads of an arc-fault circuit-Interrupter intended to be connected to the grounded conductor shall be identified by the color white or gray. Terminals or leads intended to be connected to ungrounded conductors shall be identified by a contrasting color. The color green shall not be used.
64 Branch/Feeder Arc-Fault Circuet-Interrupter
64.1 In reference to 62.4 above, a branchiteeder arc-fault circuit-Interrupter shall be marked &anch/Feeder Arc-Fault Circuit-Interrupter or ‘Branch/Feeder AFCI” where visible, with a dead-front or faceplate removed, while the device is installed.
65 Combination Arc-Fault Circuit-Interrupter
65.1 In reference to 62.4 above, a combination arc-fault circuit-interrupter shall be marked Combination Type Arc-Fault Circuit-Interrupter” or Combination Type AFCI where visible, with a dead-front or faceplate removed, while the device is installed.
66 Outlet Circuit Arc-Fault Circuit-Interrupter
66.1 In reference to 62,4 above, an outlet circuit arc-fault circuit-interrupter shall be marked Outlet Circuit Arc-Fault Circuit-Interrupter” or “Outlet Circuit AFCI” where visible, with a dead-front or faceplate removed, while the device is installed.
67 Portable and Cord Arc-Fault Circuit-Interrupters
67.1 In reference to 62.4 above, a portable arc-fault circuit-interrupter shall be marked “Portable Arc-Fault
Circuit-Interrupter” or “Portable AFCr. A cord arc-fault circuit-interrupter shall be marked “Cord Arc-Fault
Circuit-Interrupter” or Cord AFCI”.
67.2 Unless a portable or cord arc-fault circuit-interrupter has been found suitable for use in wet locations, it shall be marked ‘indoor use only”.
67.3 A portable or cord arc-fault circuit-interrupter not provided with a permanently attached cord shall be marked with the following or equivalent wording “This product should be used only with a (two or three)-conductoc. 120 volt, (15 or 20) ampere supply cord set employing Type (cord specified by (he manufacturer) cord. In event of cord set damage, it should be replaced only with an equivalent cord set.” where the information in parentheses is to be selected or tilted m as appropnate.
67.4 A portable or cord arc-fault circuit-interrupter shall be clearly marked in upper or lower case letters at least 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) high with the foitowing, or equivalent, statement: “In the event this device trips, the cause Is to be corrected before further use. See owners manual.”
67.5 The rated load-capacity marking of a cord-connected arc-fault circuit-interrupter shall include watts.
