The spark gap (SG) which protects the communications equipment from extremely high energy

sources such as lightning and nuclear explosions.

A protective device called TRANSORB (TZ) is contained on each input circuit. The transorb

will block line voltages above plus or minus 140 volts from the communications equipment.

The test set will detect a short circuit within the arrester or Input circuit associated with the

arrester.

The test set will detect an open circuit within the arrester or Input circuit
