The Figure presents the zone of influence which has a dependency on energy, distance, target fragility. Figure 17 presents the results of the model which is empirically derived and includes other forms of heat transfer than just radiation. Since the model encompasses all forms of heat transfer registered by the measurement device, it is unclear how this comment as written is relative to the figure.

However, this requires detailed knowledge of the equipment lineup. Since this is unique to the equipment and plant configuration, the decision was made to not include this level of complexity and keep the application of the model as a first order approximation.

The arc fault likely has a similar X/R ratio (reactance to resistance ratio) to the open circuit impedance and is likely not purely resistive.
