Abstract
Due to the wide spread use of power system surge protective devices (SPDs) to protect the proliferation of electronic equipment, a more thorough understanding of potential failure modes of SPDs is essential for safety reasons. The intent of this article is to provide the reader with SPD failure concepts and appropriate mitigation techniques.
