A surge arrester is a protective device designed to limit voltages on industrial generators by discharging or bypassing the surge current. The surge arrestor helps prevent continued flow to the ground current. This device does not absorb lighting nor stop lighting, which is a common reasons for power grid surges. Rather, the device diverts the lighting strike, limits the industrial generator voltage, and protects the installed generator.
There are many applications for surge arresters. Examples include protecting a utility substation, data center power grind, or a residential home.
