xamples of protection stages for line cards

In such a stage, parallel function is assumed by one or several Trisil, and is used to protect

against short duration surge (lightning). During this kind of surges the Trisil limits the voltage

across the device to be protected at its break over value and then fires. The fuse assumes

the series function, and is used to protect the module against long duration or very high

current mains disturbances (50/60Hz). It acts by safe circuit opening. Lightning surge and

mains disturbance surges are defined by standards like GR1089, FCC part 68, ITU-T K20.
