Hello guys,
After some previous discussions i had in this form, I decided to make load dump with electric stove coils.
I bought a 2000 Watt coils and cut into a number of pieces to match my load resistance. THe resistance values are drawing current in the range 1A- 6A.
But coils are heating up quickly and smoke is coming.
I have made sure all coils wattage levels are two times the required values.
Please advise on how to make a better solution
thanks
Jis
