What rights or privileges does a private investigator have as opposed to a civilian I have read that they have no authority but why is it that in shows like Law and Order Elliot can arrest a suspect?

Citizens arrest. Elliott I would assume is a detective hired by the county or city.Citizens and PI's both have the citizens arrest. Private Investigators are hired by a company or lawyer or individual. Elliott is hired by the city which holds a higher power.
Another View: The character (Elliot Stabler) is NOT a private investigator. He can make arrests because his character (portrayed by Christopher Meloni) is an NYPD detective. See below link:
