    Abstract: A surge arrester is disclosed. In an embodiment the surge arrester includes a first electrode for applying a first voltage potential to the surge arrester, a second electrode for applying a second voltage potential to the surge arrester, and a short-circuiting link for short-circuiting the first and second electrodes. The surge arrester further includes a retaining element for retaining the short-circuiting link, wherein the retaining element is embodied in such a way that it keeps the short-circuiting link at a distance from the first and second electrodes when a temperature is below a threshold value, and it shifts the short-circuiting link such that the short-circuiting link is pressed against the first and second electrodes and a short-circuit is produced between the first and second electrodes when the temperature exceeds the threshold value.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a piezoelectric transformer having a piezoelectric element (1) of the length L, wherein an input voltage Uin can be applied on an input side (2) for being transformed into an output voltage Uout on the output side (3) according to a transformation ratio Uout/Uin=Ku. The piezoelectric element (1) comprises multiple plies (4a, 4b, 4c) of inner electrodes, which are arranged in multiple different layers (S1, S2, S3). Each ply (4a, 4b, 4c) of inner electrodes extends along at least one predetermined sub-section of a predetermined length, wherein sub-sections of plies (4a, 4c) of a first group of layers (S1, S3) and sub-sections of plies (4b) of a second group of layers (S2) have different dimensions, so that the piezoelectric transformer satisfies the following condition: Cin≤N2Cout, wherein Cin indicates the input capacitance, Cout indicates the output capacitance, and N indicates the transformation ratio of the ideal transformer.

    Abstract: A spark gap arrangement includes a triggerable spark gap and a trigger circuit. The spark gap arrangement also includes a first and a second charge storage device, a voltage limiting component, a trigger diode, a triggerable arresting element, and a transformer. The voltage limiting component and the trigger diode are designed to relay an input pulse in a specified voltage range and charge the first charge storage device. Furthermore, the trigger circuit is designed such that the triggerable arresting element is connected via the first charge storage device dependent on the voltage and discharges the second charge storage device via a primary side of the transformer.
