    The types of transients that the control detects are: Spit – Low current, fast rise time electrical discharge that extinguishes itself instantaneously. Due to self-extinguishing characteristics, the RK3000 takes no control action when a spit is detected. Spark – Low current, relatively slow rise time electrical discharge that persists for one half cycle or less before extinguishing.
