ABSTRACT:
An overvoltage protector circuit is disclosed for protecting multiple circuits, e.g. both the antenna and power circuits of a receiver, with a single unitary protector unit. The unit includes one three electrode gas tube connected across a power circuit which has a plug for connection to a wall outlet at one end and a receptacle for receiving the receiver plug at the other. The unit further includes another three electrode gas tube protector, the end electrodes of which are connected across an antenna circuit adapted to be connected at one end to the antenna and at the other end to the receiver antenna terminals (directly or via a splitter network). The ground or neutral system in the power circuit, or a separate auxiliary ground point, is connected to the casing of both overvoltage tubes.
