What is a Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV)?
Metal Oxide Varistor is a protective component that absorbs energy when a certain voltage is reached, and it dissipates that energy through heat. For Power Sentry surge protectors, that voltage is 330V. Read More »

I should have explained better. Unlike a zener for instance, a varistor, as its name suggests, lowers its resistance with increasing voltage. I think the rated voltage is when this starts to occur, but not absolutely certain on this. This i...
