Michigan Set to Review New Standards That Will Reduce Electrical Fires PRNewswire/ National Association of State Fire Marshals
In the past year, a strong coalition of local groups including the Michigan Chapters of Electrical Inspectors and International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), along with numerous fire service organizations, have blocked previous attempts by the Michigan Homebuilders Association to remove AFCIs from the new codes. State and national fire experts agree that AFCIs will prevent many of the 73,000 residential electrical fires that occur annually in the United States and reduce the risk to life and property.
