What rating of TVS diode is suitable for a 220/240 Vac 1.5-HP pump?
Hi all,
I have a 220/240 Vac, 1.5 HP pump that I am to drive with a relay. I want to suppress the transient voltage and consequent current that will occur (due to the pump coil) at the relay contacts when the contacts are opened using a TVS diode. Which is suitable, 1.5-kW or 3-kW TVS diode?
