In order to give an external short-circuit device of a surge voltage protector a current carrying capacity that is as large as possible, a device is made up of a two-armed flexible short-circuit clip whose contact regions are arranged axially to end electrodes. The contact region is formed by two brackets that release a center region of the respective end electrode, and that stand opposite an edge region. An insulating spacer is arranged between a common base of the contact brackets and the edge region of the respective.

1. A surge voltage protector having a cylindrical construction, comprising:at least one first electrode forming a first end face of the surge voltage protector; a second electrode arranged so as to be insulated from the first electrode; a flexible short-circuit clip having an end, the end of the flexible short-circuit clip having a contact region allocated to an edge region of an end surface of the at least one first electrode; two contact brackets proceeding from a common base region and forming the contact region of the flexible short-circuit clip, the two contact brackets leaving uncovered a center region of the first electrode; an insulating spacer arranged eccentrically to the at least one first electrode and between the common base region of the contact brackets and the end surface of the at least one first electrode, the insulating spacer holding the contact region of the short-circuit clip axially at a distance from the at least one electrode, the insulating spacer being meltable in the case of an overload; and a retention piece fixing the insulating spacer in a slot of the common base region of the two brackets.
