Those removable links can be fuses, which are a good idea to use with sidactors or MOVs anyway.

In other types of equipment, the surge-suppression devices are connected via removable links, which are not installed until after the test. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk After swimming across the Hellespont, I felt like a Hero. ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
