Abstract:
Example embodiments of the invention perform updating of arc-fault detection protection software in a dual function/combination arc-fault circuit interrupter (DF/CAFI) device, without requiring any hardware changes to the device. Maintenance software running in a processor in the device synchronizes downloading the updated protection software as packets of modulated data from a host device, downloaded over an electric power line connected to the device. The modulated data on the power line is sensed by a current sensor of the device and is filtered, demodulated, and sampled by the device. The maintenance software then assembles packets of the demodulated and sampled data and loads them into memory in the device as the updated arc-fault detection protection software.

Claim (Index 7):
The maintenance software computer program product of  claim 6 , further comprising:\n wherein the data packet information signals received by the current interrupting device on the electric power line during the maintenance mode, are carrier signals modulated by data representing component units of the updated arc-fault detection protection software; code for filtering and demodulating, by the current interrupting device operating in the maintenance mode, the received carrier signals to output filtered and demodulated data representing the component units of the updated arc-fault detection protection software; code for sampling and digitizing, by the current interrupting device operating in the maintenance mode, the filtered and demodulated data to reproduce the component units of the updated arc-fault detection protection software from the received data packet information signals; code for validating, by the current interrupting device operating in the maintenance mode, the reproduced component units of the updated arc-fault detection protection software; and code for loading, by the current interrupting device operating in the maintenance mode, the validated, reproduced component units of the updated arc-fault detection protection software, into the memory.
