  • Modular surge suppressor system and surge suppressor module
    Patent number: 7307823
    Abstract: A surge suppressor module includes a power conductor, a ground conductor, and a housing including an opening and a plurality of dovetail groove mechanisms and arcuate ground bus bars for electrically and mechanically mounting a corresponding surge suppressor module. An alternating current surge suppressor circuit is housed by the housing. The circuit receives the power and ground conductors through the opening of the housing. The circuit electrically connects the ground conductor to the plurality of arcuate ground bus bars for electrically and mechanically mounting a corresponding surge suppressor module, in order to provide a common ground connection thereto.
