What is a lightning arrester? What is a surge protector? Electricians who have been engaged in the electrical industry
for many years must know this very well. But when it comes to the difference between lightning arresters and surge
protectors, many electrical personnel may not be able to tell them for a while, and some electrical beginners are even
more confused. We all know that lightning arresters are used to protect electrical equipment from high transient overvoltage
hazards during lightning strikes, and to limit the freewheeling time and often limit the freewheeling amplitude. Lightning
arresters are sometimes also called overvoltage protectors and overvoltage limiters.
