Falcon Arc Detection System

An electric arc short-circuit is an infrequent switchgear fault where an explosion-like heat and pressure effect causes large material damage and jeopardises the safety of operational staff.

The aim is to protect people and property in the event of an electric arc fault. The protection is established by measuring the light in a panel or switchgear compartment. If the relay also detects excess current at the same time, it will be interpreted as being caused by a electric arc. When the electric arc is detected, the system will quickly give a trigger command to the feedback switch (approximately 1ms). The speed of the trigger is the most decisive factor in the efficient limitation of damage.
