It's been a looooooong week so maybe the brain is totally dead here... but here it goes:
- There is an office room at the front left of the house which is adjacent to the kitchen.
- When i was checking the office room's receptacle outlets with a 120V AC receptacle tester
with a GFCI push test button to see if there were any open ground, neutrals, etc., I
accidentally pushed the GFCI test button.
- I was surprised to see that all the outlets in the office were GFCI protected as they tripped
off when I pushed the test button.
Could it be possible that the office room's AFCIs could be tripped with a GFCI tester? Could this be an indication of an issue with the AFCIs?
Thanks for any insight!
