A process for producing a multilayer varistor (MLV) if remained its size unchanged as prior arts is favorable to outstandingly increase overall current-carrying area and improve the performance of final produced MLV; and the MLV has laminated a lower cap, an inner-electrode stack formed from piling up several inner-electrode gaps (g), and an upper cap into a unity, and at least satisfies the condition that the lower cap and the upper cap has a thickness smaller than a thickness of the inner-electrode gap (g), but equal to or greater than 0.1 times of the thickness of the inner-electrode gap (g).
