An electric arc is a continuous electrical discharge that occurs when a high electric current flows between two conductive surfaces through air or another gaseous medium. This phenomenon, commonly observed in low-voltage, high-current environments, has numerous industrial applications including welding, electric circuit breakers, and plasma generation. Due to the intense heat and light it emits, an electric arc can be both technologically useful and hazardous from a safety perspective. Formation
