Reverse Polarity Diode Protection

Shunt and series diodes?
What two methods of reverse polarity protection can be employed on a DC/DC converter? What are the benefits and drawbacks of each?
Shunt and series diodes
A series diode presents a constant voltage drop, a drawback, but has the benefit of simply blocking reverse polarity and not requiring replacement of parts to resume function when polarity is corrected, also it works very quickly.
A shunt diode often works by blowing a fuse in the case of reverse polarity, which takes a finite period of time, and requires the fuse be replaced to resume function after correcting polarity, however it has no series voltage drop, which may be an advantage in some cases.

Maro Galvanalert Shore Power Corrosion Detector With Reverse Polarity Indicator $149.99 Maro Galvanalert Shore Power Corrosion Detector With Reverse Polarity Indicator . When your boat is plugged into shore power, stray current corrosion caused by badly insulated shore power supplies and defective wiring on other people s boats can rapidly destroy your anodes and do costly damage to your boat s underwater metals. Enter GalvanAlert the world s only shore power corrosion detector with reverse polarity indicator. GalvanAlert easily attaches to your 30A shore power inlet and cord set to constantly monitor if there is unsafe corrosion activity or a reverse polarity situation (which can cause a shock of fire hazard). It will protect every boat plugged into 30A power, even if you have a galvanic isolator. Constantly monitors for unsafe corrosion activity and reverse polarity Warns of unsafe reverse polarity conditions and destructive galvanic activity Will benefit any boat connected to 30A shore power |
