An arc detector comprises an analysis unit for evaluating the first measurement signal according to at least one first evaluation scheme for detecting an arc or at least one electrical effect of the arc on the electrical load network (2), wherein the electrical installation arrangement (1) further comprises at least one first tripping unit (6), which switches off the first switch (3) and disconnects the load (4) (2) in such a way if an arc is detected by the arc detector (31), wherein in order to reduce false tripping events, a second analysis and/or evaluation scheme is provided, the first evaluation scheme has a higher sensitivity than the second evaluation scheme, the second evaluation scheme is provided if a first living being of a specifiable type is present in a specifiable first surrounding area around the first load (4), and the first evaluation scheme is provided if the first living being is present in the first surrounding area.
An electrical installation arrangement for the operation of an electrical consumer network, comprising:
A method for the operation of an electrical installation arrangement, especially for the protection of the electrical installation arrangement from arc-induced fires, wherein at least one first arc detector measures at least one first electrical parameter in the consumer network, and a first measuring signal determined in this manner is analyzed and evaluated at least according to a first analytical and/or evaluation scheme, with at least one first switch being switched off during the detection of an arc by at least one first tripping unit, and a consumer and/or a partial network is disconnected in this manner from the consumer network, wherein a second analytical and/or evaluation scheme is predetermined in the presence of a first living being of a predeterminable type in a predeterminable first surrounding area around the first consumer and/or the partial network, wherein the first analytical and/or evaluation scheme has a higher sensitivity than the second analytical and/or evaluation scheme, and wherein the first analytical and/or evaluation scheme is predetermined in the absence of the first living being in the first surrounding area.
