A thunder arrestor, also known as a lightning arrester, is a device used to protect electrical equipment from damage caused by lightning strikes. It works by providing a low-impedance path for the lightning to follow, directing the electrical surge safely to the ground. Thunder arrestors are commonly installed on buildings, power lines, and telecommunication towers to prevent costly equipment damage and ensure safety.
Lightning arrestor or lightnng ROD? An arrestor typically covers a given electrical circuit- lightning rods cover outside area. Area will depend on the heighth of the rod above lower surfaces.

The MAXIMUM rated voltage is the voltage at which the electricity would arc across the insulators The usage voltage is lower than the rated voltage (usually somewhere around 80% The lightning arrestor voltage is in between. It will not pass current at the usage voltage, but will pass current when the voltage exceeds the arrestor threshhold
A flame arrestor is designed to prevent flames from propagating back into a vessel or pipeline where flammable gases or vapors are present. It works by disrupting the flame's path and extinguishing it to prevent a potential explosion.
A gas discharge arrestor is used to protect electrical equipment from damage caused by lightning strikes or voltage surges in power lines. It diverts excess voltage to the ground, preventing it from damaging the connected devices.
An arrestor is an alternative term for a buffer stop.

To remove the spark arrestor from a TRX 250EX, first, ensure the ATV is turned off and cool. Locate the exhaust system and identify the spark arrestor, usually found at the end of the muffler. Use the necessary tools, typically a wrench or screwdriver, to remove the screws or bolts securing the spark arrestor in place. Once removed, inspect the arrestor for any debris and clean or replace it as needed before reassembling.
The same as any surge arrestor equipment - to prevent surges from damaging the (telecom) equipment.

To remove the spark arrestor on a 2008 Honda Rancher ES, first ensure the ATV is turned off and cooled down. Locate the exhaust system and remove the screws or bolts securing the spark arrestor cover. Carefully pull out the spark arrestor from the muffler, taking care not to damage any components. After removal, reattach the cover securely.
A flame arrestor. This prevents a backfire from igniting gasoline vapors in the engine compartment.
A hammer arrestor in a dishwasher installation helps prevent water hammer, which is a loud banging noise caused by sudden changes in water flow.
Flame arrestor.
A device, composed of sharp points and/or knife edges, that discharges powerline overvoltages to ground. The term lightning arrestor is a misnomer, as these devices cannot protect against a direct strike to the powerline!
One would use a water hammer arrestor in their home's water lines to prevent "water hammer" (knocking), which is the noise pipes make when they have no air pockets to absorb the shock of the water stopping suddenly. To prevent pipes for doing this the water hammer arrestor provides the air needed for shock absorption.
