1. A conductor assembly, comprising:
a housing;
an electrical conductor;
a surge arrester disposed in said housing and having a longitudinal direction, an operating state and a test sate, said surge arrester configured to limit an overvoltage occurring in said electrical conductor in said operating state, and said surge arrester not configured to limit the overvoltage in said test state; and
an electrically insulating support disposed in said housing between said surge arrester and said electrical conductor in said longitudinal direction, said electrically insulating support being supported by said electrical conductor and said surge arrester being supported by said electrically insulating support;
said surge arrester having one side connected to ground and another side connected to said electrically insulating support.
