A crowbar circuit is an electrical circuit used for preventing an overvoltage or surge condition of a power supply unit from damaging the circuits attached to the power supply. It operates by putting a short circuit or low resistance path across the voltage output (V o ), like dropping a crowbar across the output terminals of the power supply.

Trisil is a trade name for a thyristor surge protection device, an electronic component designed to protect electronic circuits against overvoltage. Unlike a transient voltage suppression diodes , such as Transil, a Trisil acts as a crowbar device, switching ON when the voltage on it exceeds its breakover voltage.

Power flows from left to right: The power supply (not shown) connects to the left-hand side of the diagram, and the protected device (also not shown) is connected on the right. Once the crowbar is tripped, the only way to reset it is to replace the fuse. 206.210.75.84 21:53, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
This arises, for example, when a magnetized motor is being rotated by an overhauling load and so functions as a generator feeding power to the DC voltage intermediate circuit. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] They are an application of the chopper principle , using the on-off control of a switching device.
