RD-5027 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A temperature-responsive resistor is thermally connected to a body of metal oxide varistor material for use in transient suppression and other applications. In the event of excess energy dissipation in the varistor, the temperature of the temperature-responsive resistor increases to provide a trigger signal to a triac or other similar electronic switch, which may be utilized to provide an alarm, provide increased cooling to the varistor body, or divert or limit current through the varistor. Current through the temperature-responsive resistor may be provided from a third terminal on the metal oxide varistor, in which case the circuit is responsive to both total energy dissipation and peak energy dissipation in the varistor.
