A vehicle charging system for an electric vehicle includes a housing having a mating end for mating with a charging component and a charging terminal held by the housing connected to a power conductor to form a power transmission line. The vehicle charging system includes a charging controller for controlling vehicle charging along the power transmission line. The vehicle charging system includes a charging sensor assembly coupled to the charging controller monitoring charging status of the vehicle charging system and generating a charging output signal. The charging sensor assembly detects an arc signature from an arc event and generates an arc output signal. Based on the arc output signal, the charging controller generates a primary control output to perform a primary protective action including shutting down the charging operation and generates a secondary control output to perform a secondary protective action.
