ABSTRACT:
Suppression of transient voltage surges in an electrical power-carrying line is achieved by a voltage surge suppressor having a capacitor, varistor, and gas tube connected in parallel between the line and a current carrying conductor. The invention is effective for suppressing transient voltage surges more reliably, efficiently, and safely than is possible using primary arrestors or serially connected varistors in accordance with conventional technology. The invention may be adapted for use on medium voltage lines carrying either single-phase or three-phase electrical power.
