when i put in my big generator & transfer switch I did put out in one 
of these rugged looking Home Depot specials. However they are ONLY 
MOVs ( I looked), and they do decline with hits...  I opened it up, 
to find the box full of sand...so when the movs explode i guess I'll 
have glass.

my was from Intermatic the timer people,  with leds to tell me if i 
blew a phase,,,
it's the box on the right of this pix,,,,,

I learned about about surge, as I was the sales rep for SL WABER  who 
bought an early 80s company called Surge Sentry. I buy these things 
at hamfests cheap... avalanche diodes , movs and  gas tubes all 
combined for the best of three worlds...later I worked for APC...( 
BOY DID THEY GET BIG !!!)
GREAT SUBJECT
