Replace its breaker with your AFCI and test. If the circuit works without trips, then plug your kitchen appliances into it and check. If you get trips, you know you need to go appliance shopping. | |
May 5, 2023 at 17:22 | comment | added | peter | I don't have AFCI anywhere else in the house unfortunately (it's a 1993 build, and only my new kitchen remodel requires upgrading to AFCI), though perhaps I can move my new AFCI breaker to a new circuit and test there? And all the receptacles are new and expensive ones, no backstabs, all screws are tight, all receptacles are wrapped with electric tape. | |
