Can Actual Voltage Be Higher Than Rated Voltage For Connector
June 25, 2023 ⚊ 1 Min read ⚊ Views 63 ⚊ BLOG
In most cases, the answer is no. Exceeding the rated voltage for a connector can cause damage to the connector and pose a safety hazard. When the voltage exceeds the rated voltage, the electrical energy can cause the connector to heat up, which can result in melting, arcing, and other dangerous conditions.
Furthermore, when the actual voltage is higher than the rated voltage, it can also cause damage to the connected devices, such as wires and circuits. In some cases, this damage can result in a complete loss of functionality, requiring costly repairs or replacement.
