Power Cord with Arc Detection Device
The power cord supplied with this air conditioner is
equipped with an Arc Detection Device designed to
shut off power to the unit when it senses an arc fault
condition. An arc fault is an unintentional electrical
discharge that occurs when electrical products or
wires are damaged, aged, or improperly used. An arc
fault can be potentially hazardous if left undetected.
