ABSTRACT:
A spark gap device adapted for a direct, low-inductance connection to a foil strip transmission line having a pair of foil conductor strips located on the opposite sides of an insulator strip. The device includes a pair of electrodes spaced a predetermined distance apart from each other such that an arc discharge current can selectively flow from one electrode to the other. One electrode includes an integral threaded shaft projecting from its back side through a hole in the transmission line, where a clamp ring and retaining nut make electrical contact with the foil conductor strip on the transmission line's far side. The other electrode includes an integral cylindrical wall surrounding the first electrode and terminating in a ring-shaped surface that makes electrical contact with the foil conductor on the transmission line's near side.
