Surge protection device with high breaking capacity

A surge protection device with a high breaking capacity includes a housing with at least two lead-out electrodes, and a voltage limiting device and a thermal tripping mechanism that are installed in the housing. The voltage limiting device includes a voltage limiter, a first electrode and a second electrode that are positioned and installed in an insulating cover. The thermal tripping mechanism includes a fixed assembly, a movable assembly and a thermal trigger device. The fixed assembly and the movable assembly form a plurality of displacement switches arranged in series. The thermal trigger device is disposed in linkage with the movable assembly and includes a metal trigger sheet, a fusible alloy and an energy storage member. One end of the metal trigger sheet is fixed on the movable assembly, and the other end of the metal trigger sheet is fixed on the second electrode through welding by the fusible alloy.
