Answer / abhi
Surge Capacitor is a Device that absorbs surge and holds it for few seconds and then releases it to the system. Although it absorbs high voltage surge but it can't absorb or hold very high current surge.
Surge Arrester is a device that bypass, when applied on it, high voltage
/Current surge to the ground.
