Answer / d.sanadi.
During switching, especially capacitor banks, there will be
voltage surges at the system, to help protect the feeding
equipment from damage, surge arrestors are connected at
supply end and other end is grounded to bypass any peaks as
specified by the rating of surge diverters.

Answer / sudharvino
it is not surge currents to ground its the over currents or
over voltage upon the limits specified,,,,,,,,

during lightening very high voltage passes through the tallest surfaces above ground level,buildings etc ,so in order to protect the appliances ,from damage, a surge arester is placed,it is nothing but a small rod placed on the peak of building ,when heavy currents flow through the aresters they flow the currents to earth,

why and how voltage sharing in transformer, during magnetic balance test ?
what are symmetrical and non symmetrical components in electrical installation.
why should be the frequency is 50 hz only why not others like 45, 95 56 or anything , why should we maintain the frequency constant if so why it is only 50
