Abstract :
The Bell Telephone Company of Canada recently conducted a successful field trial of gas-filled protectors on open wire and cable intertoll facilities. The purpose of this trial, as well as extensive preliminary laboratory tests, was to compare the electrical and maintenance characteristics of gas-filled protectors with those of the conventional carbon-block spark-gap protectors. Results are summarized herein.
