Abstract
A surge voltage arrester includes a gas-tight housing in which electrodes are arranged opposite one another so as to form a gap, and are inserted into the ends of a tube-shaped insulating body on the inside of which at least one strip of electrically conductive material, an ignition strip, extends over a part of the length of the tube commencing from one electrode toward the other electrode. The strip of electrically conductive material extends beyond the gap and the elements of the arrester are relatively disposed such that the distance of the end of the strip of electrically conductive material to the other electrode is greater than the gap between the electrodes.
