Not sure if you guys remember this one. My house is built in 2018 and about a year in, I started losing an AFCI/GFCI Eaton breaker every few weeks. About 10 neighbors also had this problem. I had the power company out and they spent about an hour here and could find nothing wrong.
I emailed Eaton, I called them, I posted on their Facebook page. They did not respond to anything, their approach was to completely just ignore me.
I was pissed, but eventually I just moved on.
Well, a neighbor, who was more persistent than me, just stayed on them. Last week he shared a number to call - which I did.
Long story short, I told them how many I had already replaced, how many had not gone bad yet, the guy added those 2 numbers together and that's how many breakers they just sent me!
It's been a hot minute, almost 2 years, and I have out-of-pocketed a few hundred on this, but now I at least have enough breakers to replace every one once again ....
