Abstract

The experimental study herein presented has been aimed at investigating the suitability of using low frequency harmonic current analysis for arc detection purposes, even considering real case noisy situations [1]. An experimental characterization of series arcs has been carried out, with both laboratory and on-field tests, reproducing some arcing conditions, in accordance with the UL 1699B Standard requirements [2]. A preliminary analysis of the arcing current has been made in the low frequency range, in order to highlight some relevant characteristics for the arc detection purpose, which can be easily measured without the need of sophisticated measurement instrumentation
