Abstract
Recently energy consumption has been increasing because of advances in the industry, and electrical fires have accounted for 31.9% of all fire accidents. An electrical fire is caused by a short circuit, power surge, or poor contact. Safety devices for short circuits or power surges are currently mandatory and can actually detect problems, but arcing caused by contact failure is difficult to detect in advance. This study used an IR sensor to detect the heat concentration caused by the arc. The data from the low-resolution sensor was amplified as much as four times by interpolation to find the exact location of the heat source and were then investigated.
