  • Publication number: 20240097430
    Abstract: An overvoltage protection device module includes an electrically conductive first electrode, an electrically conductive housing electrode, and a varistor member formed of a varistor material and electrically connected between the first electrode and the housing electrode. The housing electrode includes a housing end wall and a housing side wall collectively defining a housing cavity, and first and second housing members joined together at a joint. The first housing member forms a first portion of the housing side wall and the second housing member forms a second portion of the housing side wall. The varistor member is disposed in the housing cavity.

  • Publication number: 20240088649
    Abstract: A surge protective device (SPD) assembly module includes a polymeric outer enclosure, an SPD module, a first terminal, and a second terminal. The polymeric outer enclosure defines an enclosed, environmentally sealed enclosure chamber. The SPD module is disposed in the enclosure chamber. The SPD module defines an environmentally sealed SPD chamber and includes: first and second electrically conductive electrode members; and a varistor member formed of a varistor material and electrically connected between the first and second electrode members. The varistor member is disposed in the SPD chamber between the first and second electrode members. The first terminal is electrically connected to the first electrode member and extending out from the outer enclosure. The second terminal is electrically connected to the second electrode member and extending out from the outer enclosure.

  • Patent number: 11798731
    Abstract: A dual coil inductor assembly includes an inner coil assembly including an inner coil and first and second terminals, and an outer coil assembly including an outer coil and third and fourth terminals. The inner coil includes an inner metal foil, and an inner electrical insulator sheet spirally co-wound with the inner metal foil. The outer coil includes an outer metal foil, and an outer electrical insulator sheet spirally co-wound with the outer metal foil. The inner coil is disposed within an outer coil air core of the outer coil so that the outer coil circumferentially surrounds the inner coil. The first and second terminals are electrically connected to the inner metal foil at respective first and second locations spaced apart along the inner metal foil. The third and fourth terminals are electrically connected to the outer metal foil at respective third and fourth locations spaced apart along the outer metal foil.
