Has anybody had any experience installing X-10 on circuit with an arc fault breaker? I moved into a new condo just last year, and apparently it is now code that arc-fault breakers be installed for all circuits wired to a bedroom. I am having some signal issues going between the two circuits which are on the arc-fault breakers, which also happen to be on different phases. The transmitter is installed on one of the arc fault breakers, and some receivers are on the other arc fault breaker. Circuits which are on the other phase, but normal breaker seem to work fine, so I think the arc fault breakers are causing additional signal attenuation. I have a passive coupler installed currently, but I just ordered a coupler/repeater which will hopefully solve this problem.
