In the article I read, there was a reference to an older design with a yellow button that did not trip. The design that was tripping had a white button.
Eaton wanted to solve the problem. It was not the fault of the hams. AARL is an influential organization with labs and Eaton is a respected company. They worked cooperatively.
Even though this has not affected my village, I certainly can understand the aggravation factor. But before getting to the point of Villagers taking up torches and pitchforks and going after hams, I hope someone will bring Eaton into this.
Remember the bad run of shingles a few years back that resulted in roofs being replaced at no cost. Could this be the same kind of thing? Bad timing? Bad run?
And if that is the case and the fault is with Eaton, might they replace that design at no cost?
If the gathered data points to Eaton's design, SECO or warranty needs to contact Eaton. -- Perhaps contact could be made in Morse Code.

I admit I have not read every word in every post, but I haven't gotten the impression anyone was going after the ham operators.
