Abstract

Short circuit fault cause arcing fault initiate fire accident. Fire case caused by short circuit fault in low voltage installation is occured every year. Several cases in fire accident at low voltage installation caused by short circuit fault. In this case, protection equipment failed to detect and secure the installation. This experiment investigate short circuit case at low voltage filament conductor cable 1.5 mm2. Short circuit cases variated by filament or strand that experienced contact. When short circuit occurred, arcing is recorded by thermal camera. Moreover, current and voltage arcing will be synchronized with thermal arcing image. The synchronization result is analyzed to obtain the caharacteristics of arcing that consist of value of maximum temperature arcing, sectional area arcing data, and duration of arcing. These characteristics are very useful to design arcing fault detector. The result shows that the arcing temperature, area, and duration respectively are up to 100 0C, 1300 mm2, 10 seconds.
