P4KE30CA 30 V 400 W Bi-Directional TVS Diode | DO-41 | Industrial & Telecom Surge Protector HORNBY

The P4KE30CA is a 30 V, 400 W bi-directional TVS diode designed to protect 2830 V AC/DC rails, industrial automation systems, telecom lines, and sensitive electronics from high-energy transient events. Its fast avalanche conduction and tightly controlled breakdown in both polarities ensure reliable clamping during load-dump events, inductive switching, and voltage spikes.
