ARCING EVENT DETECTION
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for detecting electrical arcing on an electrical power system, comprising the steps of:
- a) obtaining first data indicative of the temporal behavior of a signal which is indicative of a first periodic property of the electrical power system; and
b) determining whether an arcing event is present on the electrical power system based on a shape observed in the first data.
