Windshields cracking very often

We have experienced 7 cracked windscreens on our F28 fleet in about a year, only 7 aircraft in the fleet. The problem is most often a loss of heating due to arcing or shorting, then the window goes very shortly thereafter. What could be the problem, has anyone experienced same?

What is the average rate at which an airliner goes through windscreens?
