How the voltage arrester works?

The voltage arrester works by conducting when there is enough voltage to turn it on. Often, an arrester on a primary distribution circuit has a spark gap to ground, so that lightning strikes are limited in voltage, protecting the circuit. Other types of arresters, such as MOV's, can be used in surge protectors.

What is MCOV rating for lightning arrester?

The MCOV (Maximum Continuous Operating Voltage) rating for a lightning arrester is the maximum voltage that the arrester can continuously withstand without failing. It is important to select a lightning arrester with an appropriate MCOV rating to ensure that it can effectively protect against overvoltage events without being damaged.

What is difference between surge absorber and surge suppressor?

There is likely no difference. Neither is accepted terminology for a surge suppressive device (SPD). If these products have been tested by safety organizations such as CSA (Canada) or UL (US) or tested to international surge standards (IEEE, IEC), then they should bare the correct terminology, otherwise, they are not tested to provide protection to equipment during a surge. Surge Absorber acts as a load that utilizes the high current until it exhausts. but the surge suppressor diverts the high current into ground without reaching the sensitive parts of the circuit. Surge absorber degrades faster than a surge suppressor.
