Abstract
An adaptor cable and methods are provided for use with electrosurgical bipolar instruments and standard commercially available electrosurgical generators that reduce arcing. The adaptor cable limits the peak-to-peak voltage developed between the electrodes of the electrosurgical instrument by providing a minimum load impedance between the output terminals of the electrosurgical generator.
