overvoltage

Set the overvoltage to be higher than the maximum specified voltage.

An important potential source of dangerous overvoltage is electronic warfare.

An overvoltage is whenever power circuits are raised beyond their desired levels.

These insulators also have to be equipped with overvoltage protection equipment.

A typical natural source of transient overvoltage events is lightning.

The conditions of an overvoltage are sometimes hazardous.

The additional stress of overvoltage on motors will decrease motor lifetime.

A broken metallisation on a chip may thus cause secondary overvoltage damage.

If this capacity is too small, the overvoltage will possibly destroy the device and leave the circuit unprotected.

When this device detects an overvoltage it causes a short circuit between the power supply and its return.

Incidents that may lead to an overvoltage may include a solar flare or lightning.

These are designed to tolerate large surge currents for the suppression of overvoltage transients.

Although the initial analysis is correct, there is another effect that can happen, known as the overvoltage effect.

The battery transformers and overload protectors should be able to protect the batteries from overvoltage damage.

It employs comparator to detect overvoltage or under-voltage.

When the voltage in a circuit or part of it is raised above its upper design limit, this is known as overvoltage.

However, such overvoltage can cause severe and expensive damage to the electronic systems on modern automobiles and should never be used.

Overvoltage refers to voltage higher than the voltage at which equipment is designed to operate most effectively.

The de-rating effects of overvoltage and three phase imbalance on AC motors are well known.

Each sub-line was protected by fuses and by gas-filled overvoltage protectors.

This also works in reverse, so that in an overvoltage condition, the UPS will need less current.

The overvoltage and consequent resistive heating contributes to the heat required to keep the electrolyte in a liquid state.

Depending on its duration, the overvoltage event can be transient-a voltage spike-or permanent, leading to a power surge.

Several experts said that such "overvoltage" can indicate systemic trouble in the local grid, and that if severe enough, it can damage power systems.

Excessive overvoltage results in saturation of the iron core, wasting energy through eddy currents and increased hysteresis losses.
