Abstract :
This paper describes a simplified mathematical model for the calculation of the pressure rise in switchgear due to an internal arcing fault and outlines few applications where it can be used. This approach has been developed and validated by CIGRE A3.24 Working group “Tools for Simulating Internal Arcs”.
