Let $K$ be a local field of characteristic $p$ and let $L/K$ be a totally ramified elementary abelian $p$-extension with a single ramification break $b$. Byott and Elder defined the refined ramification breaks of $L/K$, an extension of the usual ramification data. In this paper we give an alternative definition for the refined ramification breaks, and we use Artin-Schreier theory to compute both versions of the breaks in some special cases.
