Analysis on Simulated Experiments of Arcing Earth Fault in Low Voltage Circuit

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this article, through the simulated experiment, the fire risk of copper conductors which were in arcing earth fault of low-voltage were validated. As a result, it showed that the polyporous combustibles could be ignited easily while ignited probability of the tight combustibles were slim under the same arcing earth fault; meanwhile, the ignited probability of the polyporous combustibles were almost identical under the different arcing fault. The results aimed to provide the important references for exploring the fire scene and investigating the reasons of electric fires once the relevant evidences existed.
