A loop portion () is formed at the proximal end () and has a diameter substantially equal to the diameter of the barrel () and is affixed thereto. The distal end () of the wire frame () extends away from the barrel portion in a direction transverse to the plane of the loop portion (). An arc discharge vessel (), having a substantially linear configuration and having electrode connections () and () extending from the ends thereof is positioned on the longitudinal axis () and is affixed to the wire frame. A first of the stem-leads, for example, (), is fixedly attached to the wire frame () near the proximal end () and a first of the electrode connections, for example, (), is affixed to the stem-lead (). The second the electrode connection () is affixed to the wire frame () at the distal end ().
