Introduction
EcoFlow AFCI/GFCI Box
The EcoFlow AFCI/GFCI Box is used for A/GFCI breakers. Each circuit is independent of each other. Compatible breaker models include Siemens QA120AFCP, Schneider QO120CAFI QO, and so forth. The product needs to be installed indoors and used in conjunction with EcoFlow SHP (smart home panel) to solve issues regarding the reuse of replaced A/GFCI breakers of the main electrical panel.
Some breakers cannot be installed onto the product. Please make sure to check whether the replaced breakers are installable before use.

It is recommended to use a 2/0 AWG wire (current 160 A) for the N wire. When fewer breakers are connected, the wire size can be reduced.
- Connect the AC out port of the SHP (smart home panel) to the hot end of the device.
Single-phase setup
When in single-phase connection, the input wires that are connected to the breakers must be hot wires and the conduit for the hot wires must be metallic.

Split-phase setup
When in split-phase connection, the 5 hot wire ends on the left are phase A and the 5 hot wire ends on the right are phase B. - Return the neutral and hot wires back to the main electrical panel via the breakers.
Post-installation Inspection
- Make sure that the wiring is secure.
- Make sure that wires and breakers are properly marked.
- Check whether the interior of the box is clean and tidy, and whether there is any metal debris that has not been cleared away.
- Use a multimeter to measure whether there is a short circuit in the wiring. Make sure the wiring is correct before powering up.
- Confirm that the hot wire input tubing is metal. If not, it needs to be changed to a metal tube.
