A tracer material (204) is embedded in a component of electrical equipment to detect excessive wear of the component when it is exposed to an electrical arc (206). As the component wears, the tracer material becomes exposed to the electrical arc and emits electromagnetic radiation (209), which is monitored continuously. The tracer material is selected so that it emits electromagnetic radiation when it is exposed to an electrical arc that is distinct from electromagnetic radiation emitted by any other parts of the component.
un matériau traceur (204) noyé dans un composant d'appareillage électrique permet de détecter une usure excessive dudit composant en cas d'exposition à un arc électrique (206). A partir d'une certaine usure du composant, le matériau traceur est exposé à l'arc électrique et émet un rayonnement électromagnétique (209), lequel est surveillé en permanence. Le matériau traceur est choisi pour qu'il émette, lorsqu'il est exposé à un arc électrique, un rayonnement électromagnétique distinct des rayonnements électromagnétiques émis par d'autres parties du composant.
