Abstract There is a little research on DC arc detection when compared to a large number of literature and patents on AC arc detection. However, as DC energy sources such as photovoltaic power generation facilities and fuel cells are introduced, research on DC arc has become as important as AC arc detection in terms of circuit protection and system reliability enhancement. In this paper, we have developed an arc detection method for photovoltaic system using frequency analysis. Through various experiments, it was confirmed that the proposed method effectively detects the arc.
