Zusammenfassung:An ignitor spark indicator is described that monitors RF signals within a flame rod located near a spark rod . The signal from the flame rod is processed to provide a waveform that indicates when electrical arcing is occurring. The indication when arcing is occurring is also provided to flame-detecting equipment. The flame-proving device only operates when the arcing is not produced so that the flame-detecting device does not confuse the arcing with a flame reducing the false positive determinations.
