Abstract
A line protector device for providing an electrical conducting path between a line and ground upon an overvoltage appearing on the line includes an overvoltage device having a pair of longitudinally spaced conductive terminals forming an arc gap therebetween. One of the terminals includes a longitudinally extending portion and an insulation circumscribing the extending portion which is inserted into a longitudinally circumscribing shorting clip and is provided with a centrally disposed slit in one end which receives the extending portion of the overvoltage device. The clip and overvoltage device are received within a conductive cartridge which then may be inserted into a conventional terminal block.
