  Some specifications which define a surge protector for AC mains and some communication protection. Clamping voltage — better known as the let-through voltage. This specifies what voltage will cause the metal oxide varistors (MOVs) inside a protector to conduct electricity to the ground lin...

• Hazards of Metal Oxide Varistor

  12/14/2009

  While a metal oxide varistor is designed to conduct significant power for very short durations (~8/20 microseconds), such as caused by lightning strikes, it typically does not have the capacity to conduct sustained energy. Under normal utility voltage conditions, this is not a problem. However, cert...
