Patent ID: 11264797

Abstract:
Disclosed in the present invention is a novel overvoltage protective device for lightning protection, comprising a first varistor, a second varistor, a PTC Thermistor, and lead-out terminals. The first varistor and the PTC Thermistor are connected in parallel, and then further connected in series with the second varistor to form a single port combined circuit. The surge-withstand capability of the first varistor is higher than the surge-withstand capability of the second varistor. At least one of the two lead-out terminals of the single port combined circuit is a thermally-conductive end with low thermal resistance. The second varistor is thermally coupled to the PTC Thermistor. The thermally-conductive end with low thermal resistance is thermally coupled to one or both of the second varistor and the PTC Thermistor.
