An arc protection system for an electrical enclosure having an electrical component positioned in an interior thereof. The system includes two busbars and at least one arc routing device positioned in the interior and an arc containment device defining a cavity and including an electrode assembly positioned within the cavity, wherein the electrode assembly is electrically coupled to the two busbars. The system also includes at least one arc routing device having a first end proximate the electrical component and a second end proximate the arc containment device. The at least one arc routing device is operative to i) attract arc plasma generated during an arc event at the electrical component, and ii) transport the arc plasma to the arc containment device, wherein the arc containment device is configured to transfer electrical energy of the arc plasma to an exterior of the electrical enclosure.
