Development of series fault arc simulation experimental device

Abstract

In view of problem that current fault arc generator device could not simulate temperature and humidity of environment and contact separation state, a series fault arc simulation experimental device was developed. The device can simulate series fault arc under different working conditions by controlling temperature and humidity of environment, contact separation state such as movement distance and frequency and amplitude of vibration, and real-timely display and store temperature and humidity of environment, arc voltage and arc current. The experimental results verify effectiveness of the device.
