    摘要: A varistor component and a method for securing a varistor component are disclosed. In an embodiment a varistor component includes a first external contact, a second external contact, a varistor electrically connected to the first external contact, a path between the varistor and the second external contact and an active releasing device having a shutter and a heat sensitive element, wherein, under abnormal operation conditions, the heat sensitive element releases the shutter, and the shutter moves along a straight line and closes the path between the varistor and the second external contact.

    摘要: A multiple spark-gap arrester is disclosed. In an embodiment the arrester includes a series connection of a plurality of spark gaps between a first potential node and a reference-ground potential node and a trigger circuit having an input and an output, the input being coupled to a second potential node between two adjacent spark gaps of the plurality of spark gaps, and the output being coupled to at least one of the spark gaps between the second potential node and the reference-ground potential node, wherein the trigger circuit is configured, when at least one spark gap between the first potential node and the second potential node is ignited, to supply a trigger signal for the at least one of the spark gaps between the second potential node and the reference-ground potential node.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a capacitor assembly (1) which comprises at least one ceramic multilayer capacitor (2) comprising ceramic layers (4) and first and second electrodes (5a, 5b) arranged therebetween, and a base (3). The base (3) comprises a substrate (9) and conductor tracks (10a, 10b), wherein the conductor tracks (10a, 10b) lead from a top side (11) of the substrate (9) said top side facing toward the multilayer capacitor (2), to an underside (12) of the substrate (9), said underside facing away from the multilayer capacitor (2). The multilayer capacitor (2) is mechanically secured on the base (3). The first electrodes (5a) and the second electrodes (5c) are electrically contacted with the conductor tracks (10a, 10b).
