Arc Vault’s breakthrough arc fault protection technology will stop an arcing fault in less than 8 msec to provide increased arc flash hazard mitigation with equipment doors open or closed Arc Vault’s ...

Arc fault detection is a critical issue in modern power and photovoltaic (PV) systems owing to the significant safety risks posed by unintended electrical discharges. These faults, occurring when ...

Germany's Fraunhofer ISE announced it published a new international test standard for inverters that incorporate arc fault detection devices. The research institute said the new IEC 63027 standard ...

Two different technologies protect against two different types of hazard. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) devices protect people from shock by opening a circuit at a low threshold of leakage ...

This paper presents a summary of a Honeywell collaborative IR&D project with University of Toronto on current arc fault detection and protection (AFDP) circuits and systems for the aerospace industry.
