Gas Arrestor

This 3 pole over-voltage gas discharge tube (GDT) with fail safe is designed to fit into 5B type protection
magazines and protect telephone circuits.

Features
• Fits into standard 3 pole magazines (BT description "protector mounting 5B”)

• Manufactured to BT standard 21A, with a lower spark over-voltage than previous versions (e.g, 14A and 14A/1)

• Lower spark over-voltage offers circuits greater protection while still allowing plenty of headroom above standard telecoms voltage
