IEEE | 1987 | 35 |
New IEEE Standard – Inactive – Superseded. Superseded. Assistance in selecting the most appropriate type of low-voltage surge-protective device (either gas tube or air gap) for a particular application is provided. Evaluation of the characteristics of each device to meet specific service requirements is also given.
