Most Popular Arc Detecting Systems
Effect of thermal phase can be prevented by early detection of arc and isolating the switchgear within 100 mS.
Most popular arc detection sensors:
1. Pressure: Reacts to the increasing pressure
2. Light: Reacts to the light

Comparison of Arc Detecting Systems
We recommend Pressure dependant system:
1. More reliable than lightdependent system due to lessinterfaces
2. No compromise on technicalrequirements
3. On line testing possible as option
4. Less expensive compare to light dependent system

Conclusion
1. If the switchgear and control gear is installed, operatedand maintained as per the instructions of manufacturer,there should be little probability of internal arc occurringduring its entire service life, but is can not be completelydisregarded
2. Internal arc qualified switchgear as per IEC62271-200will offer the highest personal safety within the periodfor which switchgear has been tested
3. To reduce the thermal phase effects, arc detecting systemlimiting the arc within 100ms can be employed as option
4. If early arc detection system is desired, then systembased on Pressure is recommended
