The invention relates to a surge voltage protector (1) which comprises a discharge current path with at least one varistor block (4a, 4b, 4c). In order to prevent the varistor blocks (4a, 4b, 4c) from bursting when an inner error is produced and an electric arc connected thereto is created, a coating (9, 9a, 9b, 9c) is applied in the region of the outer covering area of at least one varistor block (4a, 4b, 4c), said coating being made of a substance which triggers an electric flashover when a critical temperature of the varistor blocks (4a, 4b, 4c) is exceeded.
