    Abstract: In one aspect, the application provides an electrical system including a conductor, a ground, an arrester electrically connected to the conductor, and a disconnector assembly electrically connected between the arrester and the ground. The disconnector assembly includes an isolator configured to perform an operating function in response to the occurrence of an event and a housing configured to surround the isolator. The isolator includes a first terminal electrically connected to the arrester by a first wire and a second terminal electrically connected to the ground by a second wire. The housing includes a first opening through which the first terminal extends, a second opening through which the second terminal extends, and a retention mechanism configured to hold the isolator in place relative to the arrester.

    Abstract: A disconnector assembly (10) is provided for an arrester (13). A non-conductive housing (21) has first and second opposite ends (92) and (93) separated by an internal chamber (27). A first electrical terminal (12) is connected at the first end (91). A second electrical terminal (41) is connected at the second end (93). A capacitor assembly (95) engages and extends between the first and second terminals (12) and (41) in the internal chamber (27). The capacitor assembly includes a capacitor (31) and a resistor (81) electrically connected in series. A sparkgap (75) is electrically connected in parallel the capacitor assembly (95) between the first and second terminals (12) and (41). A cartridge (51) with an explosive charge is positioned in the internal chamber (27), and the cartridge (51) is electrically parallel to the capacitor assembly (95) and electrically in series with the spark gap (75).
