Abstract

A spark arrestor for protecting a high intensity, gaseous discharge lamp, ballast and other circuit components against being damaged or destroyed by a large build up of voltage. The arrestor includes a multi-sided low dielectric disc with star-like conductive material on each side, the points of the star being opposite the mid-points of the sides. Terminals for connecting the spark arrestor across the secondary of the ballast, or other similar location, are connected to each of the star-like conductive materials. There is a non-conductive tubular shield around the disc to protect againt spreading of the spark, but the terminals extend from the ends of the shield for connection purposes.
