data-end=\"582\">In an increasingly interconnected world, electrical and electronic systems form the backbone of modern infrastructure, from smart cities and industrial automation to data centers and

These surges, whether caused by lightning strikes, utility switching, or internal equipment operations, can inflict catastrophic damage, leading to costly downtime, equipment failure, and even safety
