(under subclass 72) Subject matter wherein the space discharge device or devices are electric arcs.
(1) Note. The systems in this subclass are limited to those in which the discharge is between electrodes exposed to the atmosphere. Other systems under subclass 72 where the discharge has negative resistance characteristics (arc) are in subclass 72 or indented subclass 73 where the discharge device has a control device.
