  • Abstract
    The spark gap Capacitor is a low cost overvoltage protective device which finds broad application in Color T.V. receivers and other electronic equipment. The discussion which follows covers the theoretical basis of an atmospheric spark gap, the performance characteristics of a practical unit, and some typical applications.
