The first terminal end 12 includes a first terminal 16, which is used to electrically connect the lightning arrestor of variation 10 to a first electric line. The second terminal end 14 includes a second terminal 18, which is used to electrically connect the variation lightning arrestor 10 to a second electrical line. The first electric line can be, for example, an electrical conduction terminal which connects the first terminal 16 with a high-voltage line of an electric power distribution system, and the second electric line can be a electrical conduction terminal that connects the second terminal 18 to the ground. Alternatively, however, the first electric line may be, for example, an electrical lead terminal which connects the first terminal 16 to the ground, and the second electric line may be an electrical lead terminal that connects the second terminal 18 to a High voltage line of an electric power distribution system. The first terminal 16 is screwed into a first end connector 20, and the second terminal 18 is electrically connected into a second end connector 22 in a manner to be described later. The first and second end connectors 20 and 22 are electrically conductive and, for example, can be formed from aluminum. A variation interrupting block 24 is in electrical contact with the first and second end connectors 20 and 22. In accordance with the foregoing, a series of circuits are formed between the first and second end connectors 20 and 22. The interruption block of variation 24 can be a varistor block of metal oxide, for example, which conducts in the presence of the variations with the aim of diverting the variation energy in the electric power distribution system between the first and second terminals 16 and 18. A housing 26 of the lightning rod houses the first and ^ 3 & & ^^^^^^^ s ^^ the second end connectors 20 and 22 and the interruption block of variation 24. As is known, the housing 26 of the lightning rod can be a polymeric or porcelain housing insulator having a plurality of polymeric or porcelain water shells 28. A mounting bracket 30 is provided for the purpose of mounting and supporting the surge arrester 10 to a practical use pole or other apparatus of an electrical power distribution system. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the second end connector 22 has a first end 32, which is in electrical contact with the variation stop block 24. The second end connector 22 also has a second end 34, which it comprises a wall 36 which forms a cavity 38. A fault disconnect 40 includes a cartridge 42, which is contained within an end 44 of the second terminal 18. The fault disconnect 40 includes a first electrically conductive washer 46 which is supported at the end 44 of the second terminal 18, a second electrically conductive washer 50 that abuts an internal wall 52 of the second end connector 22, and a resistor 54 that is sandwiched between the first and second electrically conductive washers 46 and 50. A plastic cup 56 contains the first and second electrically conductive washers 46 and 50 and the resistor 54 when the fault disconnect 40 is assembled com or is shown in Figure 1. In this way, the plastic cup 56 isolates the resistor 54 and the first and second electrically conductive washers 46 and 50 from the wall 36 of the second end connector 22 to, in this way, direct the current Failure to flow from the second end connector 22 through the second electrically conductive washer 50, through the resistor 54, through the first electrically conductive washer 46, and through the second terminal 18. In Figure 3 the variation interruption block 24 is shown. The variation interruption block 24 is provided with first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62. The first metallized electrode 60 is electrically contacted with the first end connector 20, and the second metallized electrode 62 is electrically contacted with the second end connector 22. The first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 can be formed from a electrically conductive material such as copper, aluminum, zinc, silver, gold, or the like, or of any suitable electrically conductive composition such as compositions that are composed of silver, gold, platinum, palladium, and / or the like. The first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 can be applied to the variation stop block 24 depending on the electrode forming material. For example, if the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 are formed of silver, the variation stop block 24 is cauterized after it is formed, an electrically insulating collar is applied to the variation stop block 24, then applied the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 to the variation stop block 24, and then the variation stop block 24 is again cauterized. The first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 can be applied by means of spraying or coating. the ends of the variation stop block 24 with silver. If the threads are formed at the ends of the variation stop block 24, as will be discussed below, the ends of the variation stop block 24, including the threads, can be sprayed or coated with silver in order to form the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62. On the other hand, if the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 are formed of aluminum, the variation stop block 24 is cauterized after it is formed, an electrically insulating collar is applied to the block. interruption of variation 24, after re-cauterizing the variation interruption block 24, and finally the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 are applied to the variation stop block 24. The first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 can be applied by means of sprinkle the ends of the variation stop block 24 with aluminum on the arc. If filaments are formed at the ends of the variation stop block 24, the -, - ^. A. ^. ^ ^ WK¡W ™ * > - '* --- «aaa« ¿. - .. F a ** .-. * Ends of the interruption block of variation 24, including the filaments, can be sprayed in arc with aluminum, with the aim of forming the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62. After the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62 were applied to the variation stop block 24, the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 are suitably attached to the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62, respectively, as shown in Figure 4 For example, the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 can be attached to the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62, respectively, by a suitable bonding agent, such as an electrically conductive epoxy or solder. Alternatively, if the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 are not attached to the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62, the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 can be retained in the variation stop block 24 by means of enclosing the variation interruption block 24 and the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 in an electrically insulating material 63, as shown in Figure 5. The first and second end connectors 20 and 22 can be applied, and the material electrically insulation 63 after the last cauterization step. The electrically insulating material 63 can to be, for example, fiberglass or other suitable material, such as epoxy, that can be applied as a wrapper or that can be sprayed around the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 and the interruption block of variation 24. In this In this case, the electrically insulating material 63 acts as a support member. As a further alternative, the filaments that were formed in the variation interruption block 24, as described below, can threadably engage the corresponding filaments of the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 in order to secure the block together of interruption of variation 24 and the first and second end connectors 20 and 22. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the wall 36 of the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 has a circumferential groove 63 about it. During the assembly of the variation lightning arrester 10, the housing 26 of the lightning arrester is applied to the subassembly comprising the variation stop block 24, the first and second metallized electrodes 60 and 62, and the first and second end connectors 20 and 22, as it is shown in Figure 1. For example, this subassembly can be inserted into the housing 26 of the lightning rod. Alternatively, the housing 26 of the lightning arrester can be molded directly onto this subassembly.
The housing 26 of the lightning rod is mounted to the mounting bracket 30 by means of inserting the wall 36 through a hole in the mounting bracket 30, as shown in Figure 1. The mounting bracket 30 may have a first cavity 64 and a second cavity 66, which are concentric with respect to each other. The second cavity 66 is defined by a generally cylindrical wall 68 of the mounting bracket 30. The generally cylindrical wall 68 may have an internal taper. As the second end connector 22 is pushed through the hole in the mounting bracket 30, a flange 70 of the second end connector 22 enters the first cavity 64 of the mounting bracket 30, and the taper of the wall 68 generally cylindrical causes an end portion 72 of the arrester housing 26 to be tightened between the generally cylindrical wall 68 and the flange 70 of the second end connector 22. As a result of this tightening action, the end portion 72 acts as a packing or seal in the second terminal end 14 for the purpose of isolating the internal part of the housing 26 from the lightning rod from the external environment. When the lightning rod housing 26 is fully pressed into the hole of the mounting bracket 30, so that the circumferential groove 63 is accessible, a spring ring (not shown) is clicked into the circumferential groove 63 in the wall 36 of the second extreme connector 22 to secure .

The resistor 54 is inserted into the plastic cup 56 until the resistor 54 rests on the first electrically conductive washer 46, and the second washer is placed electrically conductive 50 in the upper part of the resistor 54. The sub-assembly 74 is then inserted into the cavity 38 of the second end connector 22, until the second electrically conductive washer 50 rests on the inner wall 52, leaving a space 78 as shown in FIG. shown in Figure 1. The space 78 is filled with an encapsulating epoxy material in order to hold the subassembly 74 in electrical contact with the second end connector 22.
Instead of using a spring ring in the circumferential groove 63 of the second end connector 22 to secure the first and second end connectors 20 and 22, the variation stop block 24, and the housing 26 of the lightning arrestor to the mounting bracket 30 , the second end connector 22 can be screwed into the mounting bracket 30. As shown in Figure 1, the housing 26 of the lightning arrestor is formed on the first end connector. so as to provide a seal in cooperation with a flange 90 of the first terminal 16. This seal at the first terminal end 12 insulates the inner part of the housing 26 from the lightning rod from the external environment. Alternatively, the housing 26 of the lightning arrester can be configured with an integral 0-ring (not shown). The integral O-ring can be fitted within an annular groove (not shown) that forms around the first connector 20 in order to provide a seal at the first terminal end 12 which isolates the inner part of the housing 26 from the lightning rod external environment. During the formation of the variation interruption block 24, the variation interruption block 24 can be provided with female threads 100 at one end thereof, as shown in Figure 6.

By way of Alternatively, the variation interruption block 24 can be provided with male threads 102 at one end thereof, as shown in FIG. 7, during the formation of the variation stop block 24. As in the case of the female threads 100, the variation stop block 24 can be provided with male threads 102 at each of its ends. As a further alternative, variation stop block 24 can be provided with male threads 102 as shown in Figure 8. Female threads 100, male threads 102, or male threads 104 can be configured to receive the corresponding threads of the first and second end connectors 20 and 22. In accordance with the above, instead of joining the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 to the variation stop block 24, or instead of retaining the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 in the variation interruption block 24 with the electrically insulating material 63, as discussed above, the first and second end connectors 20 and 22 can be retained in the variation stop block 24 by means of a threaded gear. Additionally and / or alternatively, the variation interruption block 24 can be provided with male threads at one of its ends, so that several variation interruption blocks 24 can be stackable in a threaded manner, as shown in Figure 9. As shown in FIG.
