Abstract
In a method for detection of an arc in a current path of a converter arrangement (2) for converting a DC input power to an output power, an arc is detected by sensing the current (4) in the current path by means of a current transformer (11), filtering the current signal (4′) with an analog band pass filter (14), converting the analog filtered current signal (4″) into a digital current signal (4′″), determining the harmonic content (19) of the digital current signal (4′″) and then deciding whether an arc exists if the harmonic content (19) exceeds a threshold, where the threshold is determined at the beginning as a multiple of the average harmonic content during a certain period of time of the current signal.
