The authors present a physics based electric arc model which can simulate both static and dynamic characteristics of an arc load controlled by an electronic circuit. The proposed model was developed from modifications of the classical Cassie and Mayr equations. It has been test implemented in the Saber circuit simulator. There has been a considerable degree of correspondence between the simulated and experimental results
