Transient voltage protection component

The present invention provides a transient voltage protection component having a low discharge initiation voltage and a high ESD tolerance. The transient voltage protection member has a pair of discharge electrodes facing each other via a gap, and a discharge trigger section in contact with the pair of discharge electrodes. The discharge trigger part contains a ceramic material, metal particles, and pores discontinuously dispersed, and the average diameter of the pores is 0.05 [mu] m or more and 1.04 [mu] m or less. 本发明提供一种具有低的放电起始电压和高的ESD耐量的瞬态电压保护部件。上述瞬态电压保护部件具有经由间隙相互对置的一对放电电极和与一对放电电极相接的放电触发部。放电触发部包含陶瓷材料、金属颗粒、以及不连续地散布的细孔，细孔的平均直径为0.05μm以上且1.04μm以下。
