Hi All,
I am doing a design using a Gas discharge tube. The Gas discharge tube is the next one:
https://www.mouser.co.uk/ProductDet...GAEpiMZZMsdWQmBKEIh8inVW%2ByC3JoT/R5pQ9LyuD4=
The product is rated to 230V ( it is its normal operating voltage). The problem is that the GDT is showing some sparks at 230V when It should is rated 430V, so there shouldn't be any reason why the GDT is sparking.
Is there any way to absorb those spark, avoid them or to choose another GDT which doesn't spark ( or at least the spark stay contained in the encapsulated).
Cheers,
Winsu
