Abstract

An arc fault detection system is disclosed. The arc fault detection system includes a plurality of capacitive arc fault sensors electrically connected to a plurality of different segments of an electrical power distribution system and an arc fault detector electrically connected to the plurality of capacitive arc fault sensors. Each capacitive arc fault sensor is configured to output an arc fault signal based at least on detecting a high frequency current generated from capacitively coupling with an electrical arc. The arc fault detector is configured to receive one or more arc fault signals from one or more capacitive arc fault sensors of the plurality of capacitive arc fault sensors and determine a location of an arc fault in the electrical power distribution system based at least on the one or more arc fault signals.
