AC transients hit different than DC, and your board needs a diode rated for it specifically. This 1.5KE handles 13.6V standoff at 16A with a 1500W AC power rating. Low Zener impedance, fast response time. D0-201 package. -55°C to 175°C operating and storage range. Solder it in and your AC rail's protected from the next spike that would've taken out everything downstream
