The difference between MOV and surge protection and their application in light control products

Surge voltage is a common but potentially serious damage phenomenon in electrical equipment and systems. To protect these devices, engineers typically use metal oxide varistors (MOVs) and surge protection devices (SPDs). Although both are used to protect against surge voltage, there are significant differences in their working principles, structures, and application scenarios. This article will […]

Which light controller does not have resistance drift?

It is a device that can automatically adjust the switching status of lighting equipment according to the ambient light intensity. However, the photoresistor in the light controller may drift in resistance, which affects its performance and accuracy. What is resistance drift? Resistance drift refers to the phenomenon that the resistance value of a photoresistor changes […]
