Hi everybody!

I would like to know what is a component called MOV and which is its footprint. Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance!
 

MOV stands for METAL OXIDE VARISTOR...a protection device used on teh PCBs. There are disc type, radial type and SMD varistors available. Check for varistors, then you should be able to find different types of packages and their correcpsonding footprints.
