I want to know how do the rate of rise and the time to half value of a surge voltage determine the characteristics of a surge arresotr.Is it true 25kA(10/350us)is equal to 80kA(8/20us)? How to calculate these things?
Some surge protectors have metal oxide varisors and some have inert gas as the conducting medium during the surge time.Which one is best? and I need the details.

There are two ELCBs(4 pole)instaled in a distribution board.
One is on the main supply (60 A,200ma) and other one for a perticular device (30 A,300ma).The tripping time of both is same 0.1s.But for a lighting time secondary was tripped but not main.After that I manually shorted the neutral and...
