Abstract
In a grounded electrically conductive housing for an electrical device, common electrically conductive connection points for one or more components connected thereto to be protected from harmful voltage surges, are provided with a spark gap formed between the connection points and ground, via either electrically conductive surge rods, electrode chips, or eyelets for conducting the voltage surges across the spark gap to ground thereby protecting the associated components from damage due to a voltage surge.
