[edit] Details

The circuit has two separate lines (230V mains inputs from left blocks). Primary protection is provided by grounding both L and N lines individually via gas-discharge tubes as well as to each other. Secondary protection is behind current limiting 47ohm series resistors on each line. Again each line and both lines are protected with blue coloured MOVs. Two separate outputs are provided to the left. This circuit can take 2x45 watt loads. Protective grounding is required.
