Square D AFCI breakers rated for double taps?

[Brandon Whitmore]

Anyone know off hand if the Square D HOM AFCI breakers are allowed to be doubled tapped? They are issue number P-2386 if that helps any..

I haven't looked it up, but figured I'd check w/y'all while typing the report.

The Schneider manual for Homeline AFCI's only shows one conductor for each terminal. I couldn't find any specific language allowing or disallowing a double-tap.

I would call for a repair. It's an indication of careless work, IMO.

How'd you like the weekend work after a week of work? []

Thank you sir.

I really wanted to pop a breaker to read it, but chose not to. Based on how the breakers looked, I doubt they were designed for 2 conductors. I can't recall ever seeing one double tapped either.

It keeps me out of trouble. Most weeks I'm working 7 days, so I've got the wife and child a little upset. It's pretty hard to turn work away after the last several years though.....

I just Googled it, and here's what showed up first: TIJ

Guess I could have searched before posting....
