This circuit helps in protecting the equipment from the damage which is caused by transient surge voltages like strikes of lightning apparatus switching operations.
Voltage surge protector circuit diagram.
Assortment of surge protector wiring diagram.
Surge protection circuit is the one referred by many as protector for voltage spikes in ac grid lines.
Surge protector or surge protection device is a device that will provide surge suppression or voltage spike suppression so that sensitive devices will not get damage.
It reveals the components of the circuit as simplified shapes and the power as well as signal connections in between the tools.
And these can be limited by m1 g1 and m2 g2 and g1 g2.
G1 and g2 are the gas discharge tubes.
Short circuit protection reverse polarity protection and over under voltage protection are some of the protection circuits that are used to protect any electronic appliance or circuit from any sudden mishappenings.
This design is not great it s slow to act depending on a relay it will take many ms to switch off at current max relay current and a 250v mov in 120v installation won t help much either.
It s the connection between the hot power line and the ground wireline.
Surge protector circuit diagram the circuit diagram of a surge protector is shown below.
Generally fuse or mcb is used for overvoltage protection however in this project our aim is to make a circuit which can perform better than a fuse or mcb and overcome the.
A word of caution.
However it is not limited particularly in ac grid lines.
