Tired of wasting hours tracing shared or mixed neutrals during a panel retrofit—only to get hit with nuisance tripping anyway? If you’re an electrician in Canada dealing with arc fault circuit interrupters (AFCIs), you already know the frustration. But there’s good news: ABB’s AFCI Advantage breakers, now available through Evolt Electrical Supply and designed for the new PAMC ABB panels, are built to solve exactly this problem.

For decades, Canadian electricians relied on thermal magnetic breakers, which didn’t monitor for arc fault conditions. This allowed flexible, efficient installations using multi-wire circuits and shared neutrals. But the introduction of first-generation AFCIs changed the game—requiring dedicated neutral paths to avoid nuisance tripping. This made both new installations and retrofits a costly and time-consuming challenge.

Enter the ABB AFCI Advantage breaker for shared and mixed neutral wiring. Using innovative waveform analysis technology, these breakers don’t rely on a clean neutral path. That means you can install or retrofit residential arc fault circuit breakers for multi-wire circuits exactly as you’ve done for years—with no need to rewire or trace neutral paths. For Canadian electricians, this translates to faster installs, reduced panel upgrade labor costs, and code-compliant solutions without the headaches.

Pairing these breakers with the new PAMC ABB electrical panels ensures you’re getting the latest in reliable, time-saving protection. Whether you’re bidding on new residential work or retrofitting outdated thermal magnetic breakers, ABB and Evolt make it easy to stay competitive—and profitable. Just run your #14/3 or #12/3, tie in your handle-tied single poles, and move on to your next job faster.
