Overvoltage Protection (OVP)
Improper connection, open sense lines (see Remote
Sensing), or power
supply failure can result in a substantial increase (40% or more) in a supply’s
output voltage, which could damage the load. Overvoltage protection is an
additional circuit that prevents the output voltage from rising more than
approximately 15% from the nominal rating.
