Re: AC Voltage
Yes, like I wrote earlier, that is a MOV - Metal Oxide Varistor and they have either two or three leads. The ones with three leads can be used to indicate when the MOV has blown. The ones with two

Re: AC Voltage
Found the name varistor. I was little I hope mini lathe has one or just power strip in is easier to replace. A varistor (a.k.a. voltage-dependent resistor (VDR)) is a surge protecting electronic

Re: AC Voltage
Not the electronic thyristor The one I am? talking about looks like a capacitor anx only has two wires. It spell almost same as a thyristor witch is a type SCR. Dave

Re: AC Voltage
I look it up just like a power strip. One time use like a fuse. You can see light to till you to replace. In electronics it was call a thyristor Maybe miss spell. RadioShack wack me $15.00 each back

Re: AC Voltage
Looks like plugs in every time to place it by a electrician. 20 years ago that cost $160.00 and hard wire. At less price is coming down. More pain It does not protect against welders only what come

Re: AC Voltage
That Square D unit is a MOV device and whether it is single use or so is dependant on the surge it handled. There is a lamp on the from which will indicate it must be replaced as the MOVs are shot. I

Re: AC Voltage
Sorry to here Arc welds do that . It wax $0.15 part and a fuse in TV and hours fun replacing the part. Dave

Re: AC Voltage
One use? You mean like a fuse? No. They come with some kind of warranty but likely last forever. Link below is to a brand sold at Home Depot. It is the plug-in kind and only works with their brand.

Re: AC Voltage
Use one for TV or computer. I like switching off the power too. Lighting , power surge and solar storms can take out electronics. A solar storm in 1859 took out telegraph stations this before

What is the best AC protector/stabilator for a 7x14 lathe? There are many types: one for your computer, one for your fridge. Full AC-DC-AC is maybe a littlebit luxury? /johannes
