  • Surge gap protection circuit for use with electrical device
    Publication number: 20030016482
    Abstract: In a communications system for transmitting and receiving forward and reverse signals, respectively, the communications system includes electrical devices for processing the forward and reverse signals and subscriber equipment for receiving the forward signals and for transmitting the reverse signals. The electrical device, for example, a distribution tap 300, includes an input port 310 for receiving the forward signals and transmitting the reverse signals, an output port 325 for transmitting the forward signals and receiving the reverse signals, and a plurality of subscriber ports 315a-n for provisioning a portion of the forward signals to subscriber equipment. Surge gap protection circuits 305 coupled to the input port 310 and to each of the plurality of subscriber ports 315a-n are included in the distribution tap 300 each for grounding a combination surge of at least 6 kV. The surge gap protection circuit 305 including a gap over which the combination surge arcs to ground.
