   Light and current based protection can be set up with dedicated arc-flash protective relays, or by using normal protective relays equipped with an add-on arc-flash option. One of the most efficient means to reduce arcing time is to use an active arc flash mitigation device, e.g., an ultra-fast earthing switch (UFES).
