  • Method for arc detection by multi-carrier reflectometry (MCTDR)
    Patent number: 11913983
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for detecting and locating a fault by reflectometry in an electrical circuit, such a method comprising the steps of: —emitting a reflectometry signal in a line of the circuit to be studied; —acquiring an electrical variable of the reflected signal passing through the network; —filtering the acquired signal so as to eliminate signals having a frequency lower than a cutoff frequency, the cutoff frequency having a value between 100 kHz and 1 GHz; —analysing an acquired signal so as to detect a fault.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 16, 2020
    Date of Patent: February 27, 2024
    Assignees: SAFRAN ELECTRICAL & POWER, WIN MS
    Inventors: Emmanuel Bussy, Sylvain Poignant, Marc Olivas, Patrick Depras, Soumaya Sallem Andasmas
  • DETECTION OF ELECTRIC ARCS IN AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20220381811
    Abstract: A method for detecting an electrical arc in an electrical system including analyzing a reflectogram representative of a spatial distribution of impedance in said electrical system and, when an electric arc is identified in the reflectogram, incrementing a detection counter by one unit.
