Abstract:
Electrical protection devices, such as for use with power systems for overvoltage protection, are disclosed. One electrical protection device includes a first electrical connection, a second electrical connection, a first electrical discharge device, and a second electrical discharge device. The first electrical discharge device includes a first conductive bus connected to the first electrical connection and a second conductive bus connected to the second electrical connection. The first electrical discharge device has a first breakdown voltage. The second electrical discharge device includes a third conductive bus connected to the first electrical connection and a fourth conductive bus connected to the second electrical connection. The second electrical discharge device has a second breakdown voltage.

Claim (Index 8):
An overvoltage protection system comprising:\n an overvoltage protection assembly including:\n a first electrical connection and a second electrical connection; \n a first electrical discharge device, including: \n a first conductive bus connected to the first electrical connection and a second conductive bus connected to the second electrical connection, the first electrical discharge device forming a spark gap between a first electrode of the first conductive bus and a second electrode of the second conductive bus each at least partially at least partially constructed from an ablation-resilient material and having a predetermined minimum diameter, the first and second electrodes converging to form the spark gap, the spark gap including: \n a breakdown region; and \n a pair of arcing horns extending angularly therefrom, \n wherein the breakdown region is formed between a generally vertical region of the first electrode and a generally vertical region of the second electrode, the generally vertical region of the first electrode being defined by a lower corner adjacent to a converging region of the first electrode and an upper corner adjacent to the arcing horn of the first electrode, the generally vertical region of the second electrode being defined by a lower corner adjacent to a converging region of the second electrode and an upper corner adjacent to the arcing horn of the second electrode, a gap between the generally vertical region of the first electrode and the generally vertical region of the second electrode has a varying width of between 1 mm and 20 mm that is gradually linearly decreasing from a widest point to a narrowest point nearer the pair of arcing horns and a breakdown voltage of at least 10,000 volts, \n wherein a difference between the widest point and the narrowest point in the breakdown region is less than the predetermined minimum diameter of either of the first or second conductive bus and the gap height is greater than at least the second gap width, \n wherein, when a voltage differential between the first conductive bus and the second conductive bus exceeds the first breakdown voltage, a first electrical current passes between the first conductive bus and the second conductive bus and is discharged over a discharge time duration of a plurality of cycles at a power line frequency non-destructively; and \n a support structure comprising:\n a plurality of mounts constructed to withstand a Lorentz force generated based on a current through the spark gaps exceeding 60,000 amps; \n a plurality of supporting insulator elements rigidly stabilizing the electrical discharge device.
