In this embodiment, on the basis of the first embodiment, the starting voltage of the electromagnetic pulse protector is set to 230V, and the applicable frequency band of the electromagnetic pulse protector is DC-6 GHz.

general starting voltage of GDT
	75V
90V
	230V
350V
	600V

Uzsat≥1.5Umax；Umax＝(√2PZ)(VSWR+Γ)

p-system power (CW power);

z-system impedance (50/75 Ω);

Wherein r represents the number of electrons escaping from the cathode surface by a positive ion bombarding the cathode surface, d is the interelectrode distance, and a is the effective ionization coefficient of the electrons. After the discharge tube discharges, the tube is changed from an insulating state to a conductor, current is generated in the tube, the discharge tube is changed from glow discharge to arc discharge along with the increase of the current, the tube voltage drop is far smaller than Vs at the moment, the value of the tube voltage drop is not changed along with the change of the current, the self-sustaining discharge state of the discharge tube can be maintained as long as the two ends of the discharge tube keep very low voltage at the moment, and a stable state is displayed, so that the effect of absorbing overvoltage surge is achieved.
