ABSTRACT:
A fragmentation resisting core unit adapted for installation within a surge arrester outer housing and including a conventional array of non-linear core components arranged in series along a core axis between the inner faces of a pair of end terminals with adjoining faces of the array subjected to sufficient compressive force that the compressed core array is electrically conductive. This core array under compression is circumscribed by a plurality of untensioned, high tensile strength annular bands of an insulant longitudinally circumscribing the compressed core array in mutually transverse planes with each reinforcing band extending longitudinally of the compressed electrically conductive core array in a manner to overlie the outer end face region of each end terminal in a closely adjoining relationship.
