No, bedroom lights fixtures do not have to be on arc fault breakers. In fact it is better if they are not. The neutral should return straight back to the distribution panel, for the arc fault circuit that the neutral is in. In some jurisdictions an electrical code amendment requires that the cable fed from arc fault breakers be identified with a blue outer sheath.
Sure. No transformer is built to last forever. Aging and operations will weaken the insulation with time.
arc energy is the amps that are comming off from the electrode
ARC VOLTAGE is the voltage that appears across the contacts of circuit breaker during the arcing period, during which the current flow is maintained in the form of an arc. The arc voltage value is low except for the point at which the current reaches zero when the arc voltage rises rapidly to a peak value.
VCB is Vacuum Circuit Breaker. It is one of the type of Circuit breaker. In VCB arching chamber is vacuum instead of oil or such arc quenching media. Its function is to break the circuit automatically in case of fault or to isolate the circuit under normal situation also.
