Zaprodk bitches about the absence of a fuse — which is clearly explained to be located on a separate power entry board.

Youtube helpfully suggested this teardown of (apparently) the same relay. Who knows if any of these are fake.

In this context, “voltage transients” are defined as short-duration surges of electrical energy. In the electrical or electronic circuits that varistors intend to protect, this energy may be released either in a predictable manner via controlled switching actions, or randomly induced into a circuit from external sources. Common sources include:

With the primaries wired together, the magnets are epoxy potted, the business end is faced off cleanly, and the whole thing put to the test. [MakeItExtreme] doesn’t go into control details in the video below, but the website mentions the magnet being powered off a 24V 15A power supply with battery backup in case of mains failure.

No, that’s not a typo in the fact box up top. I drove the Niro PHEV a total of 253.2 miles, and topped off the tank with 3.107 gallons of regular unleaded. 81.4934 miles to the gallon very nearly doubles the mileage I observed last year in the standard Niro. 26 miles of all-electric range makes a serious difference — there were many days where the gasoline engine never fired.

One aspect of ac motor protection is the surge-withstand capability of the motor itself. Paragraph 20.36.4 of the NEMA motor generator standard MG-1 defines a unit value of surge as:   u × VL-L (or 0.816 × VL-L) where VL-L is the line-to-line voltage of the ac power system.

Thanks to the MOVs’ high energy dissipation, they can be used to suppress lightning and other high-energy transients found in ac power-line applications. They’re equipped to withstand large amounts of energy and divert this potentially destructive energy away from sensitive electronics located downstream. MOVs, which are also used in dc circuits, come in a variety of form factors (Fig. 1).

You probably knew that, so I apologize if I’m going over familiar ground, but for others, it’s worth mentioning.

Thanks for letting me know about the typo and qualifier on the 208V part. I’ve updated it in the article.

I agree with you. I would suggest reading about creepage distance to the author and updating the layout after that.

I don’t know about anywhere else, but in North America, power enters the home via two 120V hot and one neutral. The two 120V hot legs are out of phase with each other, and when combined, you get 240V. So, from the breaker panel, you can pull 120V or 240V, depending on the type of breaker you insert at a given position. Some large appliances (water heaters, central AC units, electric stoves, large power tools) are 240V in North America, but most everything else is designed for a single leg 120V feed. Then just to make things even more complicated, large industrial businesses often have three phase 480V for the really big equipment.
