Abstract
A surge arrester has a diverter element with a shielding element that increases the creepage path. The shielding element includes at least one shield. The shielding element is configured from an electrically insulating material and the diverter element forms a discharge current path. One section of the diverter element lying adjacent to the shield is not covered by the electrically insulating material. The diverter element is provided with a support element, which mechanically stabilizes a shield.
