    Oxide Varistor to limit the surge voltages equally in both polarities. The high voltage arresters are always wired in a Line-to-Ground configuration to shunt the surge energy to an intentional ground path rather than through the equipment to an unintentional ground.

    For the selected voltage setting (corresponding to the "Maximum Circuit" rating of the unit), the ammeter should show a current equal to or less than that indicated in column 3 of Table 4-1. If the ammeter indicates a higher current, the unit should be replaced. Copyright SM 6145, Rev. 23, March 2019...
