(3) Inrush Current Considerations
When switching a load with a high inrush current in the ZEN relay
output or transistor output model, such as an incandescent lamp,
suppress the inrush current as shown below.
(4) Fuse Insertion
The ZEN with transistor output may burn if the load is short-circuited,
therefore, insert a protective fuse in series to the load.
