●Surge Voltage Protectors.
● SVPs are gas discharge tubes, hermetically sealed, composed of two or three electrodes properly spaced by insulators and filled with a rare gas. SVPs mainly serve to provide a conductive path for unwanted, excessive transients, which prevents the transient energy and associated voltages from damaging sensitive equipment and components, and from harming personnel.
