Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV):

  • MOV refers to a surge protection device that functions like two zener diodes connected back to back.
  • When compared to other devices, MOV is the mostly used and popular surge protection device.

Inductive loads:

  • The function of an inductive load is to convert the current into a magnetic field.
  • Inductive reactance will resist changes in current and when measuring current, it lags the voltage.
  • Motors, transformers and chokes are some of the example devices that produce inductive loads.
  • Inductance is measured in Henry.
