TJ> Hello Group, TJ> Can anyone help cross an MOV? TJ> I think it has a Matsushita logo from the "M" in a square box on the part. TJ> The partial number is V7271U.
Don't know about this one, but as Steffen said, 270V (= 27 * 1e1 = 27 * 10) sounds like a good guess. TJ> Also what would be a suitable voltage for 120 volt line voltage protection? TJ> I tried using a 130 but it is too low. That's quite clear! The 120V you know is the rms voltage which means that the peak voltage during each line cycle is a factor sqrt(2)=1.4 higher! This means that you need to use a MOV with a safe operating voltage of at least 168V.
