  • Abstract
    This paper examines the topic of response time and how it relates to and its relevance to surge protective devices. Further, it includes a review of the definitions, manufacturer´s component ratings, and information provided by the IEEE standards that is applicable to response time and surge protective devices. Finally, the document includes a practical example relating response time to the application of surge protective devices.
