Already changed fuse and air conditioning compressor clutch assembly but no power going to cause the compressor to kick on to pull back the clutch so that compressor kicks on what could be the cause?

What specific kind of vehicle do you have? It does sound like the clutch may be bad, but we also need to know what you are working on. You need to run power straight from the battery to the compressor. If is still does not engage then you need to replace the compressor and clutch, they are dead. If they do engage, then you have a wiring or computer issue.

What is the cause of stall and surge in compressor?

stall and surge is caused when the flow in the compressor loses enthalpy and static energy so that it does not have enough power to approach the end of the axis; thus it remains in the annolus of the compressor and creates a stall cell. these cells gradually join each other and create stall zones which are rotating about the axis and are some times called rotating stall. if this stage does not get stopped, the stall cells will cover the whole annolus and will stop the fluid flow through the stages of the compressor and finally lead to surge. if surge happens, the compressor will be out of order.
