What is Surge in centrifugal compressor?
Surge is a flow instability that results in a global collapse of flow through the compressor. Compressors do not continue to operate or flow once surge has occurred. Surge should be avoided. Surge is not the rough operation, vibration, pulsation, or noise that develops at low flow conditions. Surging is a momentary reversal of flow.When the pressure in the centrifugal comp. increases,the mass flow rate decreases.There is a limit up to which the pressure can be increased,then after the flow becomes instable and momentary reversal of flow take place,vibrations are produced and mechanical damage occurs.

It protects devices from electrical damage by flipping itself off or in some cases blowing it's own fuse. A UPS, uninterpretable power supply, also acts as a surge protector but with the added bonus of having battery power to compensate for lack of power temporarily.

It is designed to disconnect the load, like your TV, from an over-voltage surge such as could happen during a lightening strike. The in and out cable connectors provide the same type of surge protection from a high voltage that may be induced on the antenna or cable source for the TV during a lightening strike.
