Default Finding 100A TVS diode?

It's not shown as obsolete by Diotec. They claim distributor stock of
several thousand in PL, DE and SK.


The original datasheet says that the 600W peak pulse power is measured over
10/1000 uS waveform, but the 100A forward surge current is specd over 1/2
cycle of 60 Hz sine:

All replacements I see, the surge current is nowhere near 100A or is specd
at 10/1000 uS waveform.


P6KE-30A from ST is a direct replacement, with exactly the same
specifications.
