Remote power supply overvoltage

Probably the most common cause of an overvoltage condition is an operator adjusting the power supply output voltage too high. The remedy is to switch it off, turn the output adjustment potentiometer counter clockwise and re-apply the input power. If the voltage level of an installation goes out of its acceptable limits, the information provided by overvoltage protection can be used to initiate appropriate action to restore good operating conditions in. Most AC-DC power supplies and isolated DC-DC converters will have an Over Voltage Protection (OVP) circuit, which will protect the load in the event of an internal failure. By using this feature, we can protect the device under test (DUT) from a higher voltage than the DUT was designed to handle. Over voltage protection is useful in a variety of applications in electronics manufacturing and the. In many applications, it is crucial to safeguard against overvoltages.
