ABSTRACT:
Electrical devices based on current limiting PTC polymer devices, and in particular, electrical circuit protection devices containing a current limiting PTC polymer device composed of a current limiting polymer composition in combination with suitable electrodes and a low inductance shunt to protect the current limiting polymer composition from exceeding its breakdown field strength. Specifically, electrical devices containing a current limiting polymer composition in combination with suitable electrodes and a low inductance shunt in the form of a ribbon shunt, i.e. a flat sheet of conductive material folded over on itself.
