Why Choose the ABB TVOC-2-DP60 Arc Guard Detector?
The ABB TVOC-2-DP60 1SFA664003R3600 is an optical arc detector with a 60 m fibre-optic cable designed for use with the ABB TVOC-2 Arc Guard System. It provides remote optical monitoring inside electrical switchgear, detecting the intense light associated with an arc fault so the Arc Guard system can initiate rapid protective action.
The TVOC-2-DP60 consists of a fibre-optic detector cable connected to an optical lens, enabling the sensing point to be positioned within the protected switchgear while maintaining connection to the Arc Guard system. The detector lens provides a wide optical detection area, making the unit suitable for monitoring switchgear compartments where rapid arc-flash detection is required.
Unlike the shorter TVOC-2 detector variants, the 60 m TVOC-2-DP60 is specifically designed for use with the TVOC-2-E3 extension unit. This combination enables long-distance detector placement in larger switchgear assemblies and distributed electrical installations.

Rapid Optical Detection for Arc Guard Protection
Electrical arc faults generate an extremely intense flash of light that can be detected much faster than many conventional electrical fault conditions. ABB Arc Guard systems use strategically positioned optical detectors to recognise this light and initiate a rapid trip signal, helping reduce arc duration and limit damage to switchgear and associated equipment.
With its 60 m fibre-optic cable, the TVOC-2-DP60 enables the detector point to be positioned a considerable distance from the associated extension unit. It is specifically paired with the TVOC-2-E3, making it particularly useful for larger switchboards and installations requiring extended detector cable runs.
Typical Applications
- ABB TVOC-2 Arc Guard System installations.
- Large electrical switchgear and switchboard assemblies.
- Industrial power distribution systems.
- Arc-flash monitoring of switchgear compartments.
- Installations requiring extended detector cable distances.
- Industrial and infrastructure electrical protection systems.
