It works by pulling the current from one outlet and passing it through to the devices you have plugged into the surge protector. A surge protector contains metal oxide varistor, or MOV, which diverts any extra voltage to ensure devices receive a consistent power level. The MOV works like a pressure-sensitive valve.Mar 19, 2020
What is 3 line surge protection?
3-line protection offers protection of the hot, neutral and ground lines in an electrical circuit. Because surges can occur on any line, 3-line-or all-mode protection is necessary for full protection.
How does a surge arrester work?
A surge arrester works by diverting the extra voltage into the earth wire, rather than flowing through the electronic devices, while at the same time allowing the normal voltage to continue along its path.Nov 18, 2016

How is surge arrester connected?
The surge arrester is also connected to ground and functions by routing energy from an over-voltage transient to ground if one occurs, while isolating the conductor from ground at normal operating voltages.
