ABSTRACT-

Global ARC Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) Market to Reach $4.8 Billion by 2026
Electrical arcing is a phenomenon that occurs when electrical current jumps between two electrodes or a gap in the circuit. Such arching has the potential to produce arc flash that can cause electricity to flow or discharge over unintended path. These flashes are capable of igniting particulates in the environment including gas or gas. With arcing temperatures capable of exceeding 10,000 degrees F, there is potential for electrical fires to emerge due to the arc flashes. Arc flashes can occur wherever there is flow of electrical current. About 35% of arc flashes are known to occur in electrical enclosures and panels, mainly because of the varying types of circuits, connections and buses contained by the panel. Arcing generally occurs due to overloading and overheating of the circuit. The overheating is not just attributed to the circuit breaker but also due to it being connected to the bus. Damage can cause circuit breaker to malfunction and allow electricity to continue flowing between the connections rather than trip. While a circuit breaker is intended to break or trip the circuit connection until the resolution of the issue, a damaged circuit breaker causes continues flow of electricity, raising the threat of arcing.

Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global market for ARC Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) estimated at US$3.9 Billion in the year 2022, is projected to reach a revised size of US$4.8 Billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 4.9% over the analysis period. Branch/Feeder, one of the segments analyzed in the report, is projected to grow at a 4.9% CAGR to reach US$2.1 Billion by the end of the analysis period. After a thorough analysis of the business implications of the pandemic and its induced economic crisis, growth in the Combination segment is readjusted to a revised 5.3% CAGR for the next 7-year period. This segment currently accounts for a 31.4% share of the global ARC Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) market.

The U.S. Market is Estimated at $1.3 Billion in 2022, While China is Forecast to Reach $364 Million by 2026
The ARC Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) market in the U.S. is estimated at US$1.3 Billion in the year 2022. The country currently accounts for a 33.87% share in the global market. China, the world's second largest economy, is forecast to reach an estimated market size of US$364 Million in the year 2026 trailing a CAGR of 6.1% through the analysis period.

A key factor driving demand for AFCIs is the growing concern about safety of electrical equipment in residential sector. Arc faults are identified as a major cause of fire incidents in homes, and can cause considerable damage to property, and injuries to people. With the recent years witnessing a surge in number of such fire incidents attributed to arc faults, few countries have adopted mandatory requirements for deployment of AFCIs, given the role of such components in reducing risk posed for fire incidents. In addition to residential sector, demand for AFCIs is also anticipated to grow in the commercial buildings and houses, as concerns grow over safety of such facilities due to fault electrical wiring or equipment. Some countries like the US, Germany and Canada have adopted mandatory regulations that are aimed at ensuring adoption of AFCIs in ongoing as well as upcoming construction projects. Such regulations, aimed at ensuring safety of residential and commercial spaces, are likely to ensure sustained growth in the global AFCI market. By application, residential segment is expected to witness high growth over the analysis period led by the growing adoption of AFCIs in the sector and propelled by the mandatory regulatory compliances of governments that will fuel adoption.
