ABSTRACT:
A gas tube arrester protector used in protecting a pair of telephone lines from high voltages or surge currents includes a three electrode gas tube overvoltage arrester having a ground electrode adapted to be coupled to ground potential through a ground lead, a pair of line electrodes, each of which is adapted to be coupled to one of the pair of telephone lines through a terminal line or lead, a flat, generally U-shaped line contact and a fusible link coupled between the line contact and the line electrode. The gas tube arrester is positioned in an insulating housing or shell by disposing the line contact in slots formed by ribs on opposed walls of the housing and by positioning in grooves formed peripherally about an open end of the housing overlapped spacers having overlapping slots to receive the ground and terminal leads. The open end of the housing can be further sealed with an insulating material.
