ABSTRACT:
Surge-protective apparatus having a plurality of varistors or equivalent non-linear resistance means interconnected in parallel with one another between external power lines and ground to protect utility meters and downstream electrical equipment subject to damage from transient electrical surges. Interconnection is accomplished by interleaving electrically conductive laminar members in one or more assemblies of adjacent varistors, as in a cuplike holder.
