    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an electrical circuit and a method for detecting short circuit faults with a solid-state circuit breaker (SSCB) in a direct current (DC) electrical system. The electrical circuit includes a first sensor configured to detect a fault current of an electrical system, and the first sensor is configured for installation on a main current path of an SSCB pole; a second sensor configured to detect a derivative of the fault current of the electrical system with respect to time, and the second sensor is configured for installation on the main current path of the SSCB pole; and an analog circuit, and an output of the first sensor and an output of the second sensor are connected to the analog circuit.
