  • Surge suppression on AC power lines
    Patent number: 4912589
    Abstract: A triggered surge suppression network is disclosed comprising a low voltage clamping device, a crowbar device and a trigger device. The voltage clamping device and the trigger device are connected in parallel; and these devices are connected in series to the crowbar device. The resulting circuit is connected across a voltage supply, in parallel to a load. The trigger device causes the crowbar device to break down at a pre-set value and discharge the energy of the surge through the low voltage clamping device. The breakdown voltage of the network will depend essentially on the breakdown voltage of the crowbar device while the peak voltage supplied to the load during the surge will independently be determined by the clamping voltage of the voltage clamping device.
