    Subject: MOV device usage and spec
    This is probably directed to Bob more than anyone else, but if there are comments, please feel free. I have noticed the use of MOV's in many of the "Z" drawings. I understand their value in protecting switches etc. Do you have specs on what MOV should be used for different applications, such as for contactors, flap / gear motors, or any other inductive load? Thanks, Roger Curtis

    Subject: Know Your Charging System article
    From: "jayb" <jaybrinkmeyer@yahoo.com>
    I recently ran across this article regarding aircraft alternator operation and charging systems. http://www.nflite.com/ChargingSystem.html If you scroll down past the general explanations, there is a section titled "Don't overload the system!". The short story is that the author recommends starting the engine with ALT field off so as to not overload the charging system and/or put undue strain on the diode rectifier. Is there anything to this theory? Regards, Jay Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=163254#163254
