Metal Oxide Varistors Referred to as MOV, or Varistor
Metal Oxide Varistors is a voltage dependent resistor with symmetrical voltage-current characteristics that is designed to protect all kinds of electronic devices or elements from switching and induced lightening surges. It’s non linear exponent characteristic with froad using range and mass production is gradually being used by various level of electric engineering.
