Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2541882A] A firing arrangement for an initiator (1) includes a capacitor (16), an arming arrangement (6, 11, 14) for charging the capacitor (16) on receipt of an arming instruction and a trigger device (13). When a trigger condition is achieved which indicates sufficient charge on the capacitor (16), a trigger signal is automatically generated by the trigger device (13) to trigger discharge of the capacitor (16) through the initiator (1) to activate the initiator (1). The trigger condition may be a predetermined time after receipt of the arming instruction.
