Touchdown! Greaser!
I am changing out my three relay diodes and of course will follow the admonishments to install them stripe towards the hot side.
I have wondered however what is the result if they are installed backwards?
Will they burst and spark? Or will they simply fail to perform as designed?
I think I also need, if anyone can provide it, an explanation of how they work. (Beyond "they reduce arcing when the contacts open") I bet Dan could tell me where the energy goes and how the diode does that.
