Abstract - Photovoltaic systems have increased in both the
quantity of installations and the size of installations over the
past decade. As more utility-run systems are being
constructed, it is important to consider the safety of operators
and maintenance crew during the design andanalysesphases.
Unfortunately, one potential safety hazard, the electrical arc-
flash, is not well understood for photovoltaic systems. The
thermal energy released by this hazard can be significant,
especially in large photovoltaic systems operating at high
voltages and current. The focus of this paper is on dc PV grid
system arc flash or fault location. Simulation models are
synthesized to study the theoretical results of the proposed
methodology and traditional fast Fourier transform analysis
on arcing faults. Experimental data from the dc system of a
photovoltaic array is also shown to validate the approach.
Key Words: Arc flash, Arc fault, Classification, Analysis

1. INTRODUCTION
It is important to understand the potential hazards
that can occur in a power system to ensure the safety of the
system operators. Considerations of one such hazard, the
electric arc-flash, have increased within the lastfewdecades
for electrical constructionprojectswithhighpowerdensities
such as data centers. Governmental ordinances and facility
owners are mandating that system designers include risk-
category evaluations for this hazard in their analyses to
determine the appropriate safety labeling fortheequipment
that are most at risk. Such labeling would alert operators to
the potential dangers that can occur and inform them of the
type of personal protection equipment (PPE) that is
necessary when working on the corresponding equipment
during live conditions.
Most electrical power distribution is done with 3-
phase AC, especially within buildings and facilities. As a
result, most studies involving arc-flashes have focused on 3-
phase AC systems. It has been found that the early AC arc-
flash calculation models [1], largely based on fundamental
electrical and thermal theory, exaggerated the strength of
these hazards. Therefore, the calculations used in industry
have been refined over the years to provide more realistic
estimates for practical systems by including empirical data
gathered in the field [2].
The increased use of DC in industrial sites and
discussion of its use in data centers [3], [4]hasprompted the
need to develop accurate calculation models for estimating
DC arc flashes. Thus far, researchers have presented models
[5], [6] using approachessimilartothoseused whencreating
the early AC arc-flash models. These DC models may
exaggerate the thermal conditions similar to the early AC
arc-flash models, however they allow for a preliminary
understanding of thepotential magnitudeofthesehazardsin
DC systems.
2. DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES FOR ARC FAULT ANALYSIS
AND CLASSIFICATION
Photovoltaic systems have increased in both the
quantity of installations and the size of installationsoverthe
past decade. As more utility-run systems are being
constructed, it is important to consider the safety of
operators and maintenance crew during the design and
analyses phases. Unfortunately, one potential safety hazard,
the electrical arc-flash, is not well understood for
photovoltaic systems. The thermal energy released by this
hazard can be significant, especially in large photovoltaic
systems operating at high voltages and currents. This meth
od examines the conditions surrounding electric arc flashes
in photovoltaic systems based on typical designs [1]. Using
existing models for DC arc-flashes and basic circuit theory,
equations and analysis techniquesaredevelopedto estimate
the thermal energy that can be released if these hazards
were to occur. These techniques can be used to determine
the hazard risk category for the system components most at
risk, until more empirical models are developed [14].
As photovoltaic installations increase in quantity and
design capacities it is important to develop better
understandings of the safety hazards associated with these
systems. The understanding of one such hazard: the DC
electric arc-flash has beenslowinpropagation.However, the
estimation modelsandanalysestechniquesdevelopedfor DC
arcs thus far do not accurately characterize these hazards in
PV systems [13].

Fig-1. Typical components of a DC power block in an on-
grid PV system
This method presented a series of calculation
models and analyses approaches that can be used for
preliminary estimation of the thermal dangers of these
hazards. The models developedwerebaseduponexisting DC
electric-arc models and the typical characteristics of
practical PV systems. It is expected that these models would
be refined once more data is gathered from field-testing and
experimentation.
One of methodology presents a dc arc model to
simplify the study of a critical issue in dc microgrids: series
faults [2]. The model is derived from a hyperbolic
approximation [16] of observed arc voltage and current
patterns, which permit analyzing the arc in terms of its
resistance, power, energy, and quenching condition. Recent
faults staged by the authors on a dc microgrid yielded
enough data to develop an arc model for three fault types:
constant-gap speed, fixed-gap distance, and acceleratedgap.
The results in this paper compare experimental and
simulation results for the three fault types. It is concluded
that because the instantaneous voltage, current, power, and
energy waveforms produced by the model agree well with
experimental results, the model is suitable for transient
simulations.
Although no two data sets are identical [15], even
under nominally the same environmental and electrical
conditions, there is an underlying common behavior. While
the exact magnitude and position of the individual spikes
appear to be random, there is a consistent decrease in the
gap current and increase in the gap voltage with time. The
other apparently random feature is the gap spacing xcrit at
which the arc initiates rapid extinction.
This technique is focused on low-frequency,spectral
and correlation analysis to serial arc fault electrical system
in order to detect arc fault [3]. This analysis can be used to
improve the security of power supplies in the automotive,
aerospace and photovoltaic systems. More precisely, we
study the influence of arc ignition on the signal
characteristics. The experimental test bench is composedby
an arc generator, a robotic cylinder and different loads.
Three types of arcs ignitions are considered: carbonized
path, contact opening and over-voltage. 0.5 kHz - 500 kHz
spectrum is measured before and during the start phase of
the arc and stabilization. The results show the possibility to
determine the cause of the arc fault ignition. The shape of
low frequency arc voltage is estimated from the current
measurement with a very high fidelity where the load is
known. Finally study the possibility to locate series arcs by
analyzing the correlation function of the Radio Frequency
(RF) signals from two Rogowski coilsinsertedattwodistinct
points of the circuit. The calibration procedure performed
reveals a mean velocity in the system of about 24 cm/ns.
Fig.-2. Test circuit with over-voltage ignition
Finally, the result of cross-correlation has been used to
locate or not arc fault. RF signals from two Rogowski coils
and cross-correlation algorithm are has been used to
determine an event in the circuit and the localization of this
event [17].
Arc faults have always been a concern for electrical
systems, as they can cause fires,personnel shock hazard,and
system failure. Existing commercialized techniquesthatrely
on pattern recognition in the time domain or frequency
domain analysis using a Fourier transform do notwork well,
because the signal-to-noise ratio is low and the arc signal is
not periodic. Instead, wavelet transform (WT) provides a
time and frequency approach to analyze target signals with
multiple resolutions. In thistechnique,a newapproachusing
WT for arc fault analysis in dc systems is proposed [4]. The
process of detecting an arc fault involves signal analysis and
then feature identification. The focus ofthismethodison the
former. Simulation models are synthesized to study the
theoretical results of the proposed methodology and
traditional fast Fourier transform analysis on arcing faults.
Experimental data from the dc system of a photovoltaic
array is also shown to validate the approach.
The presence of switching harmonics and ambient
electrical noise can mask the arc signal, making detection of
an arc difficult. Fourier analysis is usually not able to
discover transient signals and abrupt changes like sudden
arc faults and arc flashes. If the duration of the arc flash lasts
for a very short period of time in comparison with the
sampling window of FFT [18], it is likely that the arc flashes
will not be observable.
However, WT is extraordinarily effective with
detecting the exact instant the signal changes. The results
suggest that the WT approach is notjustcapableofanalyzing
arc fault in dc systems but that it also provides a more

readily detectable signal and better performance than the
FFT method.
Compared to conventional AC grids, DC microgrids
demand different switchgear and safety concepts. Electric
arcs across mechanical contacts of circuit breakers during
switching operations and also arc faults within the
installation are more stable in the case of continuous
current. Model based methods are important tools not only
for selecting the appropriate method of converter control
[5], but also for analyzing the boundary conditions for faults
and to develop reliable arc fault detection devices.
Online system identification and machine learning
methods will be developed to be implemented in electronic
circuit breakers to gain more precise information of the
monitored system and its range of working points. With an
integrated system model it should be possible to identify
different kinds of faults, like shortcuts, gradual malfunction
and also arcs in an earlier stage compared to conventional
protection devices; a better prevention against further
damage of the grid and its components can be gained [19].
The technology of a series arc-fault detection
algorithm for photovoltaic (PV) systems, which relies onthe
quantum probability model theory [6]. The algorithm
determines the presence of the arc by calculating the
modified Tsallis entropy of the PV panel current. Based on
the calculated entropy, the algorithm is able to differentiate
an arc state (when the current variations are chaotic) froma
no-arc state (when the current variations are ordered). The
proposed algorithm enables arc-fault detection on a plug-
and-play principle, requiring no prior information aboutthe
PV system in which it operates. The operation of the
algorithm was first simulated on the prerecorded data from
the system with the PV panel simulator and the commercial
PV inverter. A laboratory prototype of the detector wasthen
built and tested in a real 1.6 kW grid-connected PV system
with different PV inverter, withoutanyadditional parameter
adjustments. [20] Both the sensitivity and the robustness of
the detector were confirmed. Thetestshaveshownthatboth
the sustained series arcs and the small sparking series arcs
were successfully detected and there was no false detection
due to the MPP tracker operation, PV currentstepchange, or
inverter turn on transient.
The main advantage of the proposed algorithm,
compared to the algorithms that are based on the frequency
spectrum monitoring, is that the noisesignatureofthetarget
PV system, as well as the manual calibrationofthedetector's
parameters are not required for its proper operation. The
proposed algorithm is also less computationally expensive
than FFT-based algorithms, so it can reduce the cost of the
overall product.
Fig.-3. Schematic representation of the experimental setup
In this method, the operationofthedetectionalgorithm
was simulated on a set of prerecorded data from the
commercial single phase 3.3 kW inverter and PV panel
simulator, taken at 5 different loads. The detector prototype
was then built and its operation was experimentallyverified
in a grid-connected 1.6 kW PV system, without any prior
analysis of the target PV system or any additional algorithm
parameter adjustments. During experimental evaluation,
input signal of detector prototype is recorded and internal
parameters of algorithm are reconstructed on computer.
Analysis of internal parameters revealed modest sensitivity
to current step change and large current spike during turn
on transient, and confirmed efficiency in SEA detection.
Arc faults pose significant reliability and safety issues
in today’s photovoltaic (PV) systems. This methodology
presents an effective method based on wavelet transform
and support vector machines (SVM) for detection of arc
faults in DC PV systems. Because of its advantages in time-
frequency signal processing, wavelet transform is appliedto
extract the characteristic features from system
voltage/current signals. [21] SVM is thenusedtoidentifyarc
faults. The performance of the proposed technique is
compared with traditional Fourier transform based
approaches.
This approch proposes a technique for arc fault
detection in photovoltaic systems by using discrete wavelet
transform for feature extractionandsupportvectormachine
for decision making. Since the developed classifier is
designed for real-time DSP/MCU applications, the
computation load involved in the classification and the
memory space used for support vector storage are two
major concerns.

Fig.-4. Work flow of the proposed hardware
implementation [7]
Thus, only linear SVM was considered in this paper. It has
been shown that the rescaling strategy of the feature
extraction plays a significant role in the entire classifier
development. In this method, a 2-stage rescaling strategy is
found to be efficient to provide linear separation between
the two classes for the extracted feature set to be linearly
separable.
This method describes a detectionalgorithmforseries
dc arc faults to improve safety issues in dc microgrids.Series
arc faults typically occur when gaps form in a current
flowing wire or contactor. Arc faults can create serious fire
hazards if not detected and removed in a short time. To
identify series arc faults accurately and quickly in dc
microgrids, a series dc arc fault detection algorithm using
relative magnitude comparison is proposed. The proposed
algorithm detects the time of occurrence of an arc fault
based on the magnitudes of the load current in both thetime
and frequency domains simultaneously. The algorithm
works accurately in a dc microgrid with multiple switching
converters, as it relies only on relative current information.
The proposed detection algorithm is experimentallyverified
on a 5 kW 380 V dc microgrid prototype with an arc fault
generation unit.
The proposed algorithm detects a series arc fault
candidate point using a gradient computation in the time
domain and then compares the relative frequency-domain
magnitude differences in the load current around the
candidate point. The candidatepointisdesignatedasa series
arc fault occurrence point when the magnitudes of the
frequency spectrum are significantly increased.
Fig.-5. Simple series dc arc fault test circuit [8]
Increasing prevalence of dc sources and loads has
resulted in dc distribution being reconsideredata microgrid
level [9]. However, in comparison to ac systems, the lack ofa
natural zero crossing has traditionallymeantthatprotecting
dc systems is inherentlymoredifficult—thisprotectionissue
is compounded when attempting to diagnose and isolate
fault conditions. One such condition is the series arc fault,
which poses significant protection issues as their presence
negates the logic of over-current protection philosophies.
This technique proposes the IntelArc system to accurately
diagnose series arc faults in dc systems. Intel Arc combines
time–frequency and time-domain extracted features with
hidden Markovmodels (HMMs) to discriminate between
nominal transient behavior and arc fault behavior across a
variety of operating conditions. Preliminary testing of the
system is outlined with results showing that the system has
the potential for accurate, generalizeddiagnosisofseries arc
faults in dc systems [22].
Fig.-6. Outline of Intel Arc method [9]
Accelerating Intel Arc through technology readiness levels
(TRL) will require further consideration of the effect that
noise emissions and interference from system devices have
on detection accuracy. Deployment within compact dc
networks, with current sensors located at the closest
upstream bus bar, means that transmitted fault signals and
data should remain uncorrupted. However, further
consideration will also be given to this issue at higher TRL.
This technique [10] aims at providing a reliable
algorithm to identify photovoltaic (PV) series arc faults
regardless of complex fault-like interferences. Through
conducting various arc fault experiments with different PV

current levels, arc gap lengths, and load types, PV series arc
fault features have been understood comprehensively. To
avoid unwanted nuisance tripping, fault-like conditions are
analyzed to confirm the unique arc fault features. Based on
the loop current signature, a greater unstable fluctuation in
the time domain and extra arc noises in the time-frequency
domain are chosen as identification features. By
quantificational evaluations, optimal detection variables
with the Hamming window and the proper time resolution
have been established to achieve the best identification
results. By building fusion coefficients, two variables are
arithmetically fused to achieve the arc fault discovery. The
algorithm could alsoclassifyfault-likeintonormal andadjust
the threshold value dynamically to fit different normal
current levels. Its validity has been verified by experimental
results on the simulated platform. PV series arc faultsleadto
the system operation point changes while the MPPT in
switching devices restores the original system operation
point. With synthetic effects of the MPPT, the fault loop
current increases to almost the same level as the normal
current.
Fig.-7. Experiment schematic of PV series arc fault with
different PV system and series arc fault factors [10]
Possible fault-like conditions from the PV array, load power,
and dc switch state changes display the three-stage form.
Viewed from the decrease shape, these conditions are
classified into fast, abrupt, and slow variations. For less
human regulations, PVsystemtransitionsbytheweather are
more likely to cause nuisance tripping.
High impedance faults (HIFs) are easy to occur in
collective feeders in windfarmsandmaycausethecascading
of wind generators tripping. This kind of faults is difficult to
be detected by traditional relay or fuse due to the limited
fault current values and the situation is worseinwindfarms.
The mostly adopted HIF detection algorithms are based on
the 3rd harmonic characteristic of the fault zero-sequence
currents, whereas these 3rd harmonics are very easy to be
polluted by wind power back-to-back converters. In
response to this problem,the typical harmoniccharacteristic
of HIF arc flash based on Mayr’s arc model is first analyzed,
and the typical fault waveforms of HIF in wind farm are
presented. Then the performance of the harmonicbased HIF
detection algorithm is discussed, and a novel detection
algorithm is proposed from the viewpoint of time domain,
focusing on the convex and concave characteristic of zero-
sequence current at zero crossing points. A HIFs detection
(HIFD) prototype implementing the proposedalgorithmhas
been developed [11]. The sensitivity and security of the
algorithm are proved by field data and RTDS experiments.
Fig.-8. Simulation circuit of HIF in wind farm [11]
Arc faults threaten the safeoperationofphotovoltaic
(PV) systems. An arc fault detection and localization
approach using parallel capacitors is proposed [12]. A PV
system has been analyzed and tested with five capacitors
paralleled with the branches in the system. Series and
parallel arc faults at nine locations have been tested in the
system. When an arc occurred, current pulses were
generated in the capacitors and their amplitudes and
polarities were obtained through Hall current sensors.
Discrete wavelet transformation was performed on the
capacitor currents and the distributions of their amplitudes,
frequency spectrums, and polarities are here reported. The
results indicate that the distributions are unique under
different fault types and locations, which could be used to
detect and localize arc faults in PV systems. Moreover, the
amplitudes of the capacitor currents can also helptolocalize
a series arc fault within a PV string. Finally, the proposed
approach is validated by a double-fault test.

3. PLANNING APPROACH
Fig.-10. Block diagram of planning approach
We will propose one of the methodologies in which
Arc fault or flash location at a different location on the DC
grid or solar PV system. For that Cassiearc model utilized for
arc generation at different locations of DC grid line or solar
PV dc line. The Cassie arc model is connected at different
location of dc grid and which is consider as slandered arc
model for dc grid system for different locations. Then the
voltage of the dc grid will be measured at the end of the line
and then the measured voltage will be transfer to a discrete
wavelet transform using Haar mother wavelet for signal
energy calibration.
Then calibrated spectral energy will be utilized for
designing the fuzzy rule base designing. Also utilized for
designing of input membership functions and output
membership function for the fuzzy logic controller which
will act as a classifier for arc flash locations on the dc grid.
This complete system will be designed in MATLAB Simulink
software. So we have planned to design such system in the
future in MATLAB Simulink software.
4. CONCLUSION

fault or arc flash analysis or classification on the DC grid or
PV system or wind turbine grid system. This paper will be
very much useful for researches or students who are
interested or done research or project work in arc flash or
arc-fault conditions on the dc grid system. After review
different technology we will also introduce a new technique
in the future for arc flash or fault locationclassificationusing
a discrete wavelet transform and fuzzy logic controller.

INTRODUCTION It is important to understand the potential hazards that can occur in a power system to ensure the safety of the system operators. Considerations of one such hazard, the electric arc-flash, have increased within the lastfewdecades for electrical constructionprojectswithhighpowerdensities such as data centers. Governmental ordinances and facility owners are mandating that system designers include risk- category evaluations for this hazard in their analyses to determine the appropriate safety labeling fortheequipment that are most at risk. Such labeling would alert operators to the potential dangers that can occur and inform them of the type of personal protection equipment (PPE) that is necessary when working on the corresponding equipment during live conditions. Most electrical power distribution is done with 3- phase AC, especially within buildings and facilities. As a result, most studies involving arc-flashes have focused on 3- phase AC systems. It has been found that the early AC arc- flash calculation models [1], largely based on fundamental electrical and thermal theory, exaggerated the strength of these hazards. Therefore, the calculations used in industry have been refined over the years to provide more realistic estimates for practical systems by including empirical data gathered in the field [2]. The increased use of DC in industrial sites and discussion of its use in data centers [3], [4]hasprompted the need to develop accurate calculation models for estimating DC arc flashes. Thus far, researchers have presented models [5], [6] using approachessimilartothoseused whencreating the early AC arc-flash models. These DC models may exaggerate the thermal conditions similar to the early AC arc-flash models, however they allow for a preliminary understanding of thepotential magnitudeofthesehazardsin DC systems. 2. DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES FOR ARC FAULT ANALYSIS AND CLASSIFICATION Photovoltaic systems have increased in both the quantity of installations and the size of installationsoverthe past decade. As more utility-run systems are being constructed, it is important to consider the safety of operators and maintenance crew during the design and analyses phases. Unfortunately, one potential safety hazard, the electrical arc-flash, is not well understood for photovoltaic systems. The thermal energy released by this hazard can be significant, especially in large photovoltaic systems operating at high voltages and currents. This meth od examines the conditions surrounding electric arc flashes in photovoltaic systems based on typical designs [1]. Using existing models for DC arc-flashes and basic circuit theory, equations and analysis techniquesaredevelopedto estimate the thermal energy that can be released if these hazards were to occur. These techniques can be used to determine the hazard risk category for the system components most at risk, until more empirical models are developed [14]. As photovoltaic installations increase in quantity and design capacities it is important to develop better understandings of the safety hazards associated with these systems. The understanding of one such hazard: the DC electric arc-flash has beenslowinpropagation.However, the estimation modelsandanalysestechniquesdevelopedfor DC arcs thus far do not accurately characterize these hazards in PV systems [13].

Typical components of a DC power block in an on- grid PV system This method presented a series of calculation models and analyses approaches that can be used for preliminary estimation of the thermal dangers of these hazards. The models developedwerebaseduponexisting DC electric-arc models and the typical characteristics of practical PV systems. It is expected that these models would be refined once more data is gathered from field-testing and experimentation. One of methodology presents a dc arc model to simplify the study of a critical issue in dc microgrids: series faults [2]. The model is derived from a hyperbolic approximation [16] of observed arc voltage and current patterns, which permit analyzing the arc in terms of its resistance, power, energy, and quenching condition. Recent faults staged by the authors on a dc microgrid yielded enough data to develop an arc model for three fault types: constant-gap speed, fixed-gap distance, and acceleratedgap. The results in this paper compare experimental and simulation results for the three fault types. It is concluded that because the instantaneous voltage, current, power, and energy waveforms produced by the model agree well with experimental results, the model is suitable for transient simulations. Although no two data sets are identical [15], even under nominally the same environmental and electrical conditions, there is an underlying common behavior. While the exact magnitude and position of the individual spikes appear to be random, there is a consistent decrease in the gap current and increase in the gap voltage with time. The other apparently random feature is the gap spacing xcrit at which the arc initiates rapid extinction. This technique is focused on low-frequency,spectral and correlation analysis to serial arc fault electrical system in order to detect arc fault [3]. This analysis can be used to improve the security of power supplies in the automotive, aerospace and photovoltaic systems. More precisely, we study the influence of arc ignition on the signal characteristics. The experimental test bench is composedby an arc generator, a robotic cylinder and different loads. Three types of arcs ignitions are considered: carbonized path, contact opening and over-voltage. 0.5 kHz - 500 kHz spectrum is measured before and during the start phase of the arc and stabilization. The results show the possibility to determine the cause of the arc fault ignition. The shape of low frequency arc voltage is estimated from the current measurement with a very high fidelity where the load is known. Finally study the possibility to locate series arcs by analyzing the correlation function of the Radio Frequency (RF) signals from two Rogowski coilsinsertedattwodistinct points of the circuit. The calibration procedure performed reveals a mean velocity in the system of about 24 cm/ns. Fig.-2. Test circuit with over-voltage ignition Finally, the result of cross-correlation has been used to locate or not arc fault. RF signals from two Rogowski coils and cross-correlation algorithm are has been used to determine an event in the circuit and the localization of this event [17]. Arc faults have always been a concern for electrical systems, as they can cause fires,personnel shock hazard,and system failure. Existing commercialized techniquesthatrely on pattern recognition in the time domain or frequency domain analysis using a Fourier transform do notwork well, because the signal-to-noise ratio is low and the arc signal is not periodic. Instead, wavelet transform (WT) provides a time and frequency approach to analyze target signals with multiple resolutions. In thistechnique,a newapproachusing WT for arc fault analysis in dc systems is proposed [4]. The process of detecting an arc fault involves signal analysis and then feature identification. The focus ofthismethodison the former. Simulation models are synthesized to study the theoretical results of the proposed methodology and traditional fast Fourier transform analysis on arcing faults. Experimental data from the dc system of a photovoltaic array is also shown to validate the approach. The presence of switching harmonics and ambient electrical noise can mask the arc signal, making detection of an arc difficult. Fourier analysis is usually not able to discover transient signals and abrupt changes like sudden arc faults and arc flashes. If the duration of the arc flash lasts for a very short period of time in comparison with the sampling window of FFT [18], it is likely that the arc flashes will not be observable. However, WT is extraordinarily effective with detecting the exact instant the signal changes. The results suggest that the WT approach is notjustcapableofanalyzing arc fault in dc systems but that it also provides a more

Compared to conventional AC grids, DC microgrids demand different switchgear and safety concepts. Electric arcs across mechanical contacts of circuit breakers during switching operations and also arc faults within the installation are more stable in the case of continuous current. Model based methods are important tools not only for selecting the appropriate method of converter control [5], but also for analyzing the boundary conditions for faults and to develop reliable arc fault detection devices. Online system identification and machine learning methods will be developed to be implemented in electronic circuit breakers to gain more precise information of the monitored system and its range of working points. With an integrated system model it should be possible to identify different kinds of faults, like shortcuts, gradual malfunction and also arcs in an earlier stage compared to conventional protection devices; a better prevention against further damage of the grid and its components can be gained [19]. The technology of a series arc-fault detection algorithm for photovoltaic (PV) systems, which relies onthe quantum probability model theory [6]. The algorithm determines the presence of the arc by calculating the modified Tsallis entropy of the PV panel current. Based on the calculated entropy, the algorithm is able to differentiate an arc state (when the current variations are chaotic) froma no-arc state (when the current variations are ordered). The proposed algorithm enables arc-fault detection on a plug- and-play principle, requiring no prior information aboutthe PV system in which it operates. The operation of the algorithm was first simulated on the prerecorded data from the system with the PV panel simulator and the commercial PV inverter. A laboratory prototype of the detector wasthen built and tested in a real 1.6 kW grid-connected PV system with different PV inverter, withoutanyadditional parameter adjustments. [20] Both the sensitivity and the robustness of the detector were confirmed. Thetestshaveshownthatboth the sustained series arcs and the small sparking series arcs were successfully detected and there was no false detection due to the MPP tracker operation, PV currentstepchange, or inverter turn on transient. The main advantage of the proposed algorithm, compared to the algorithms that are based on the frequency spectrum monitoring, is that the noisesignatureofthetarget PV system, as well as the manual calibrationofthedetector's parameters are not required for its proper operation. The proposed algorithm is also less computationally expensive than FFT-based algorithms, so it can reduce the cost of the overall product. Fig.-3. Schematic representation of the experimental setup In this method, the operationofthedetectionalgorithm was simulated on a set of prerecorded data from the commercial single phase 3.3 kW inverter and PV panel simulator, taken at 5 different loads. The detector prototype was then built and its operation was experimentallyverified in a grid-connected 1.6 kW PV system, without any prior analysis of the target PV system or any additional algorithm parameter adjustments. During experimental evaluation, input signal of detector prototype is recorded and internal parameters of algorithm are reconstructed on computer. Analysis of internal parameters revealed modest sensitivity to current step change and large current spike during turn on transient, and confirmed efficiency in SEA detection. Arc faults pose significant reliability and safety issues in today’s photovoltaic (PV) systems. This methodology presents an effective method based on wavelet transform and support vector machines (SVM) for detection of arc faults in DC PV systems. Because of its advantages in time- frequency signal processing, wavelet transform is appliedto extract the characteristic features from system voltage/current signals. [21] SVM is thenusedtoidentifyarc faults. The performance of the proposed technique is compared with traditional Fourier transform based approaches. This approch proposes a technique for arc fault detection in photovoltaic systems by using discrete wavelet transform for feature extractionandsupportvectormachine for decision making. Since the developed classifier is designed for real-time DSP/MCU applications, the computation load involved in the classification and the memory space used for support vector storage are two major concerns.

Work flow of the proposed hardware implementation [7] Thus, only linear SVM was considered in this paper. It has been shown that the rescaling strategy of the feature extraction plays a significant role in the entire classifier development. In this method, a 2-stage rescaling strategy is found to be efficient to provide linear separation between the two classes for the extracted feature set to be linearly separable. This method describes a detectionalgorithmforseries dc arc faults to improve safety issues in dc microgrids.Series arc faults typically occur when gaps form in a current flowing wire or contactor. Arc faults can create serious fire hazards if not detected and removed in a short time. To identify series arc faults accurately and quickly in dc microgrids, a series dc arc fault detection algorithm using relative magnitude comparison is proposed. The proposed algorithm detects the time of occurrence of an arc fault based on the magnitudes of the load current in both thetime and frequency domains simultaneously. The algorithm works accurately in a dc microgrid with multiple switching converters, as it relies only on relative current information. The proposed detection algorithm is experimentallyverified on a 5 kW 380 V dc microgrid prototype with an arc fault generation unit. The proposed algorithm detects a series arc fault candidate point using a gradient computation in the time domain and then compares the relative frequency-domain magnitude differences in the load current around the candidate point. The candidatepointisdesignatedasa series arc fault occurrence point when the magnitudes of the frequency spectrum are significantly increased. Fig.-5. Simple series dc arc fault test circuit [8] Increasing prevalence of dc sources and loads has resulted in dc distribution being reconsideredata microgrid level [9]. However, in comparison to ac systems, the lack ofa natural zero crossing has traditionallymeantthatprotecting dc systems is inherentlymoredifficult—thisprotectionissue is compounded when attempting to diagnose and isolate fault conditions. One such condition is the series arc fault, which poses significant protection issues as their presence negates the logic of over-current protection philosophies. This technique proposes the IntelArc system to accurately diagnose series arc faults in dc systems. Intel Arc combines time–frequency and time-domain extracted features with hidden Markovmodels (HMMs) to discriminate between nominal transient behavior and arc fault behavior across a variety of operating conditions. Preliminary testing of the system is outlined with results showing that the system has the potential for accurate, generalizeddiagnosisofseries arc faults in dc systems [22]. Fig.-6. Outline of Intel Arc method [9] Accelerating Intel Arc through technology readiness levels (TRL) will require further consideration of the effect that noise emissions and interference from system devices have on detection accuracy. Deployment within compact dc networks, with current sensors located at the closest upstream bus bar, means that transmitted fault signals and data should remain uncorrupted. However, further consideration will also be given to this issue at higher TRL. This technique [10] aims at providing a reliable algorithm to identify photovoltaic (PV) series arc faults regardless of complex fault-like interferences. Through conducting various arc fault experiments with different PV

To avoid unwanted nuisance tripping, fault-like conditions are analyzed to confirm the unique arc fault features. Based on the loop current signature, a greater unstable fluctuation in the time domain and extra arc noises in the time-frequency domain are chosen as identification features. By quantificational evaluations, optimal detection variables with the Hamming window and the proper time resolution have been established to achieve the best identification results. By building fusion coefficients, two variables are arithmetically fused to achieve the arc fault discovery. The algorithm could alsoclassifyfault-likeintonormal andadjust the threshold value dynamically to fit different normal current levels. Its validity has been verified by experimental results on the simulated platform. PV series arc faultsleadto the system operation point changes while the MPPT in switching devices restores the original system operation point. With synthetic effects of the MPPT, the fault loop current increases to almost the same level as the normal current. Fig.-7. Experiment schematic of PV series arc fault with different PV system and series arc fault factors [10] Possible fault-like conditions from the PV array, load power, and dc switch state changes display the three-stage form. Viewed from the decrease shape, these conditions are classified into fast, abrupt, and slow variations. For less human regulations, PVsystemtransitionsbytheweather are more likely to cause nuisance tripping. High impedance faults (HIFs) are easy to occur in collective feeders in windfarmsandmaycausethecascading of wind generators tripping. This kind of faults is difficult to be detected by traditional relay or fuse due to the limited fault current values and the situation is worseinwindfarms. The mostly adopted HIF detection algorithms are based on the 3rd harmonic characteristic of the fault zero-sequence currents, whereas these 3rd harmonics are very easy to be polluted by wind power back-to-back converters. In response to this problem,the typical harmoniccharacteristic of HIF arc flash based on Mayr’s arc model is first analyzed, and the typical fault waveforms of HIF in wind farm are presented. Then the performance of the harmonicbased HIF detection algorithm is discussed, and a novel detection algorithm is proposed from the viewpoint of time domain, focusing on the convex and concave characteristic of zero- sequence current at zero crossing points. A HIFs detection (HIFD) prototype implementing the proposedalgorithmhas been developed [11]. The sensitivity and security of the algorithm are proved by field data and RTDS experiments. Fig.-8. Simulation circuit of HIF in wind farm [11] Arc faults threaten the safeoperationofphotovoltaic (PV) systems. An arc fault detection and localization approach using parallel capacitors is proposed [12]. A PV system has been analyzed and tested with five capacitors paralleled with the branches in the system. Series and parallel arc faults at nine locations have been tested in the system. When an arc occurred, current pulses were generated in the capacitors and their amplitudes and polarities were obtained through Hall current sensors. Discrete wavelet transformation was performed on the capacitor currents and the distributions of their amplitudes, frequency spectrums, and polarities are here reported. The results indicate that the distributions are unique under different fault types and locations, which could be used to detect and localize arc faults in PV systems. Moreover, the amplitudes of the capacitor currents can also helptolocalize a series arc fault within a PV string. Finally, the proposed approach is validated by a double-fault test.

The Cassie arc model is connected at different location of dc grid and which is consider as slandered arc model for dc grid system for different locations. Then the voltage of the dc grid will be measured at the end of the line and then the measured voltage will be transfer to a discrete wavelet transform using Haar mother wavelet for signal energy calibration. Then calibrated spectral energy will be utilized for designing the fuzzy rule base designing. Also utilized for designing of input membership functions and output membership function for the fuzzy logic controller which will act as a classifier for arc flash locations on the dc grid. This complete system will be designed in MATLAB Simulink software. So we have planned to design such system in the future in MATLAB Simulink software. 4. CONCLUSION This paper is reviewing thedifferenttechniquesfor arc fault or arc flash analysis or classification on the DC grid or PV system or wind turbine grid system. This paper will be very much useful for researches or students who are interested or done research or project work in arc flash or arc-fault conditions on the dc grid system. After review different technology we will also introduce a new technique in the future for arc flash or fault locationclassificationusing a discrete wavelet transform and fuzzy logic controller.
