Hi,
I have a PSU that outputs 13.8VDC with a max load when all attached equipment is being used of 6.65A.
I have been reading a lot about over voltage circuit protection & this is something that I wish to add to my setup.
I've read about many different configurations & seen many, many different diagrams.
As a novice I really need some help here.
I am looking to protect my equipment by shutting off the supply if the voltage rises to 14VDC.
How do I calculate the values for the various components required in say, this setup: http://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/power/transient-suppression.html
under the section:
Zener Crowbar Clamping Circuit
for my given input voltage & load?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards..,
