Title: Ground Free Surge Supression

Abstract: The word Ground is so often used in the context of surge protection that it is difficult to imagine a surge protection device that does not require earth ground. Well, there are some applications where secondary-type surge protection devices do not require earth grounding. Eagle Research Corp. has developed a secondary surge protection system that has saved Mountaineer Gas and a number of other remote-mounted instrument users thousands of dollars in the last couple of years. This system is especially attractive for use with instruments mounted on cathodically protected piping and systems. Grounding cathodically protected equipment shorts out the protection and results in angry phone calls from the corrosion group.
