Over Current
Protection

When a load unit is operating in CR or CV mode,
the unit may need over current protection to
prevent excessive current being sunk. Over current
protection stops the load from sinking more current
than its recommended limit which can cause
damage to the unit.

Over Power
Protection

Over power protection is used when the power
range exceeds the specifications of the load. When
OPP is tripped power will cease to be sunk.
