Apparatus for protecting electronic components and equipment and method of manufacturing the apparatus. A transient protection device capable of mounting onto a circuit board. The transient protection device includes first and second conductive paths. The first conductive path lies in a first plane and the second conductive path lies in a second plane spaced apart from the first plane. Furthermore, a dielectric material lies in a third plane disposed between the first and the second plane. A ground plane is coupled with said first conductive path to discharge an electrical surge.

Stripline transient protection device

Apparatus and method for protecting hardware devices using a grounding panel. The grounding panel provides a low inductance path to ground. The grounding panel includes first and second telescoping tubes each having inner and outer ends and the first tube having an outer surface and the second tube having an inner surface. The inner end of the first tube is slidably housed within the inner end of the second tube. A portion of the inner end of the first tube is radially outwardly deflectable. A means for biasing the portion outwardly such that the outer surface of the first tube is biased against the inner surface of the second tube so to maintain electrical and mechanical contact between the first and second tubes over a range of relative telescopic positions of the first and second tubes.
