A Study on Necessity of AFCI and Algorithm of Micom Design for Electric Fire Reduction

전기화재 감소를 위한 아크차단기의 필요성 및 마이컴 설계 알고리즘 연구

Despite the numerous electric systems that have been developed, electric fires remain at a similar rate each year in total fires. This paper suggests that it is not enough to prevent electric fires only by the currently used electric system. We have studied ways to improve this situation. we have focused on AFCIs that have already been institutionalized in the United States. AFCIs work by detecting the arc fault in the circuit. This is expected to contribute greatly to reducing electric fires.
