ABSTRACT:
An arrester having at least two stacks of non-linear resistors connected in series, an arcing gap device connected to shunt one stack of resistors when the gap means sparks over, and a hermetically sealed housing enclosing the resistor stacks and arcing gap device and filled with sulfur hexafluoride gas having a gauge pressure not less than 2 kg/cm.sup.2. The impedance of the one resistor stack is from about 15% to about 35% of the total impedance of the two resistor stacks when the arcing gap means sparks over, and the rated voltage of the arrester is not less than about 50 KV.
