            Abstract : 
Reported are results of research and development of multi-chamber arresters and insulators that combine characteristics of insulators and arresters. The devices permit to protect overhead power lines rated at 3 to 35 kV and above against induced overvoltages and direct lightning strokes without using shield wire.
