Abstract
A circuit breaker for active detection of an arc fault comprises a controller and an actuator. The controller monitors a load current of one or more devices connected to the circuit breaker. The controller detects an arc-like signal in the load current and decreases power temporarily to the connected device(s) for a temporary period of time in response to detecting the arc-like signal in the load current. The controller determines whether the arc-like signal is present in the load current while the power is decreased. The actuator inactivates the load current in response to the controller determining that the arc-like signal is not present in the load current while the power is decreased.
