Answer / sarmadahmed
Surge current is the faulty current produced due to some short circuit and is capable of burning the equipment so earthing is used to provide it a low resistant path for grounding.
Surge current means an instantaneous current of very high amplitude.
Surge voltage would be in case of open circuit condition.
