Abstract
An AC power source is controlled to inject an AC signal to a current sensor. In one embodiment, the AC power source is capacitively coupled to the current sensor. An output of an arc fault detection circuit is received. In one embodiment, the arc fault detection circuit is coupled to the current sensor, and wherein the arc fault detection circuit is configured to detect a presence of an arc based at least in part on the current sensor. It is determined whether a fault in the arc fault detection circuit is present based at least in part on an evaluation of the output of the arc fault detection circuit.
