Abstract
In a surge absorber, a pair of protrusion electrodes is fixed to a pair of terminal electrode members at positions shifted from the center of the terminal electrode members to be point-symmetrical with the center of a ceramic insulator tube and a distance between the protrusion electrodes is adjusted so as to obtain a desired discharge starting voltage. As a result, it is possible to easily change the distance between the discharge electrodes without changing the length of the discharge electrodes.
