Hello,
It may be stupid question but I really tried to figure it out but couldn't. Where in the datasheet to find the maximum load current for MOC3021 Optocoupler? Is it suitable for 25 Ampere AC load? If not what is the replacement?
I'm using it as a simple switch connected to a triac (BTA24-600B). The controlling signal is coming from an arduino as shown below.
