Tweetys Extends EMS HW 50C Deal

[one_dusty_hoot]

Gentlemen, The Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) acts
as your first line of defense for voltage spikes
plus there are other other features of the EMS HW50C.

If a hi-ampere jolt came in the line strong enough
to vaporise the MOV the system would shut down any
futher voltage coming in UNTIL you selected by-pass
at which time you would be on par with your current
condition. Maybe you would read frequency, L1,L2
voltages, line currents, I don't know?

The manual says to send postpaid envelope to replace
fried MOV's but how often is this? Not that often,
possibly years I would expect. They are about the
size of a quarter and cost $.25 to $5.50

Depending on the current they may take up to a 100
hits before failing or if a strong enough spike could
go the first time.

Some who have used these could give us first-hand
information as to this device being problematic but
we have heard no such warning so far.

good. You can see one at http://www.viprv.com and it explains the coverage
the unit provides. My thinking is better to smoke the protector than
the bus
