A surge arrester module including: first and second end electrodes; and a stack of cylindrical elements including at least one varistor block. The first end electrode includes a first part and a second part. A connecting element is provided between the first end electrode parts in order to keep them electrically connected to each other if a gap is formed between them. At least one clamping member is connected to the second end electrode and to the first part of the first end electrode in order to press them towards each other in the axial direction. The clamping member or at least one other clamping member is connected to the second end electrode and to the second part of the first end electrode in order to press them towards each other in the axial direction.

A conductor assembly includes an electrical conductor, a surge arrester which has a longitudinal direction, an operating state in which the surge arrester is configured to limit an overvoltage occurring in the electrical conductor, and a test state in which the surge arrester is not configured to limit the overvoltage. An electrically insulating support is disposed between the surge arrester and the electrical conductor in the longitudinal direction. The support is supported by the electrical conductor, and the surge arrester is supported by the support.

A protection device against pulsed currents intended to transmit signals having frequencies lying in a transmission frequency band. The protection device has a signal conduction path and a shielding disposed around the signal conduction path. The signal conduction path has two spark gaps mounted in series and an inductor element linking a portion of the signal conduction path situated between the spark gaps. The inductor element is linked to the shielding. The protection device is configured as a high-pass filter allowing passage over the signal conduction path of the signals having frequencies lying within the transmission frequency band.
