Hi, I have a question about varistors.
I fix stuff for a living, I don’t design it ... and I’ve never really understood how the values are chosen because the datasheets show so many different values for each device.
I have a basic 240V – 24V switched mode power supply that got hooked up to 440V apparently.
Seems to have blown a fuse, NTC resistor and a varistor.
What I am surprised about is that the varistor is a 470V varistor ... TVR14471-D.
Does that sound right for a supply operating on 240V?
Thanks.
